While you are waiting for this wonderful performance, visit Children's Services and stop by our ballet display to find some great books to read.
I Want To Be A Ballerina by Annabelle Blackledge is a wonderful introduction to the art of ballet. This early reader is perfect for children to read on their own and it also works well as a preschool read aloud.
The story follows Jamie as she attends her first ballet lesson, learns about basic ballet steps and meets the other boys and girls in her class.
Over in the Meadow at the Big Ballet by Lisa Shulman is lovely picture book about a little swan who feels a bit of stage fright before performing in her first ballet.
