OLIVIA Takes Ballet: From the Fancy Keepsake Collection

by Cordelia Evans (Adapter), Patrick Spaziante (Illustrator)

Olivia’s in need of a dance partner—and Uncle Garrett is perfect for the part in this Fancy Keepsake Collection storybook.

Uncle Garrett is visiting and Olivia and Ian are thrilled! After a night with her mom at the ballet, Olivia can’t wait to perform a pas de deux—a dance with a partner—at Show and Tell. But when she goes to ballet class, there are no boys, and therefore no dance partners. Who can get she get to dance with her? It’s Uncle Garrett to the rescue!

From the Fancy Keepsake Collection, this deluxe format features a padded cover with foil, glossy pages, and a fun pull-out poster. This adorable story based on an episode is sure to be a big hit with all Olivia fans!

I feel as though this is a good book to read to children as they begin to engage in extra-curricular activities such as sports or dance. Olivia starts ballet, and in her mind she is going to be great at it. However, she soon realizes that it is not as easy as it looks and she is going to have to practice and try very hard to get better. It think all children need to be aware of the fact that you have to practice and try really hard and you will succeed.
