Ella Bella Ballerina...
"Mayhew's simple storyingtelling and delicate watercolors in blues, pinks, and lilacs meld together to tell the tale of the much-beloved ballet and evoke its timeless mystery and etheral qualities for young audiences." - Kirkus Reviews

Under Madame Rosa's tutelage, Ella Bella and her classmates pretend to be baby swans as they dance to Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake".  Ella watches as "Sleeping Beauty" unfolds before her eyes in a dream, dances with Clara in the Nutcraker, and when given a pair of replacement ballet slippers becomes Cinderalla.  The Final page in each book describes the origins of the ballet and the composer that created the music; the great Russian composer, Sergei Prokofiev (Cinderalla), the great Russian composer Piotr Tchaikovsky (The Nutcracker, Swan Lake, & Sleeping beauty).
