Description

A lively and encouraging picture book celebrating boys who love to dance, from the renowned American Ballet Theatre.


 


Boys who love to dance are center stage in this encouraging, positive, rhyming picture book about guys who love to pirouette, jet , and pli . Created in partnership with the American Ballet Theatre and with the input of their company's male dancers, here is a book that shows ballet is for everyone.


 


Written by the acclaimed author of A Is for Audra: Broadway's Leading Ladies from A-Z, who danced as a child, this book subtly seeks to address the prejudice toward boys and ballet by showing the skill, hard work, strength, and smarts is takes to be a dancer. Fun and buoyant illustrations showing boys of a variety of ages and ethnicities, making this the ideal book for any boy who loves dance. An afterword with photos and interviews with some of ABT's male dancers completes this empowering and joyful picture book.
