A Child's Book of Ballet by Violet La Mont

A Child's Book of Ballet celebrates the arts as it introduces young children to ballet.

The book features a glossary of ballet terms and highlighted vocabulary to help young dancers learn the ballet language. Children will be introduced to the five positions, the seven basic movements, the role of the composer and choreographer, the history of ballet, and more. The information is written clearly for young readers.

Violet La Mont's illustrations are woven throughout the text. These vintage pictures, which were created in the 1950s, show beautiful costumes and boys and girls dancing in both practice and performance.

A Child's Book of Ballet is a die-cut, shaped book. Young children can easily interact with the fun shape.

This book is the perfect introduction to ballet for all young dancers. With clear and engaging information, unique illustrations, and a shaped format, this book will become a favorite on your prima ballerina's shelf.
