a mom's review....
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
beautifully illustrated, heartwarming childrens stories. Even though the Angelina stories are geared towards girls, my little boy, at 8, enjoyed these as well, especially when mom read to him. These are good stories to read to your child at bedtime. The artwork is detailed and delightful to look at-you'll see new things each time you look, and children love that that every scene is filled with many little mice. This Angelina story deals our hopes and dreams(in Angelina's case constant dancing)-to follow your dreams but at the same time know there is a time and place for fun, and a time to do your work. Each book is filled with wonderful life lessons told in a gentle, non preachy way. I highly recommend this series for any child. 5 stars!
Best Children's Ballet Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I think that Angelina inspires young dancers to fulfill their dreams. She is spunky and delightful. It's the perfect little gift for a young child. They don't have to be interested in ballet to enjoy this book. I am a pre-professional ballet dancer. This book means a lot to me for it was my favorite book when I was younger and it still is one of my favorites.
She's one great mouse!!

This is by far my daughter's favorite book, and I'm glad. Angelina is a wonderful little girl (mouse) and a great role model. She has a dream, to be a ballerina, and the book is all about her hard work and determination in fulfilling that dream. At the end of the book, you feel the delight of her achievement, and hopefully, go away feeling that you too can achieve the dreams of your heart.
My daughter's Idol

My daughter has fallen in love with this book and the character of Angelina so quickly. It is a wonderful book with beautiful illustrations and we enjoy reading it so much. My daughter was already interested in ballet but this book has brought her imagination to a new level. I highly recommend this book to anyone with a young girl.
My favorite childhood series!!

This series is wonderful literature for kids! The pictures are excellent and fit the story well. I read it to my kids now and they really love it. I think that they like Angelina Ballerina more than the all-famous Bernstein Bears! I recommend this series to everybody who enjoys good literature!!!!
