Description

In ballet, Romantic and Classical themes take their place beside folk and fairy tales, while much-loved comic ballets provide the fun. All the enchantment is here -- from bewitched princesses, evil sorcerers and star-crossed lovers, to a sad clown and a real-life clockwork doll. This book includes a gala collection of ballet favorites: The Sleeping Beauty, Giselle, The Firebird, Ondine, Swan Lake, Petrushka, The Nutcracker, and Coppelia. Each retelling is true to the ballet as performed on stage, offering young readers a sparkling introduction to the world of dance. Full-color illustrations.
