Dancing to Bed

Pirouette off to bed with the lilting Bedtime Ballet by Kallie George and Shanda McCloskey.

If you have a reader who is passionate about ballet, this is the book for them. Kallie George treats readers to a lyrical, rhyming story filled with movement and beautiful ballet terms. Dreamers will chassé with the toads while the crickets chirp out a composition worthy of a pas de deux.

The illustrations by Shanda McCloskey are filled with colour and so many curiosities. Little ones will especially love the cricket orchestra and brother hiding in the laundry basket. Many will enjoy the little floppy bunny the prima ballerina carries with her as her dance partner.

A fantastic bedtime story for the dancers who need a little encouragement to jêté into bed.
