Tallulah is back in ballet class and now she wants to go en pointe—to dance up on the tips of her toes in pink satin toe shoes, like a real ballerina. But going en pointe is not good for growing feet, and her ballet teacher says her feet aren't ready yet. Oh, yes, they are, Tallulah thinks. And so am I. Not only is she ready, she's determined. And nothing stops Tallulah when her mind is made up. This book would be great for characteristics and character traits. She is such a brave girl and never gives up no matter what anyone says. She is determined to follow her dreams. This is a great example of someone who is motivated and so many other characteristics that you can talk about, this book does a great job of showing many character traits. Tallulah wants toe shoes, but her teacher says she is not ready for them. An older girl throws her old toe shoes away and Tallulah sneaks them from the garbage. She tries them at home and she realizes that her feet are not ready for them, she brings the shoes back and throws them away. The older girl catches her and they talk and she ends up letting her know that she will be ready one day. Source: Pierce County Library Age: 4-6 Tallulah is a little girl who desperately wants to be a ballerina and dance with toe shoes. After trying to stand on her second-hand toe shoes (which are a little too big), a ballerina explains how hard it really is to dance on your toes and that she would have to wait until her feet are complelty grown to do it. Cute book about growing up and learning things the hard way. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

Tallulah is frustrated because the grownups will not let her try dancing in toe shoes yet, so she sneaks a pair out of the wastebasket and tries on her own. No library descriptions found. |

Like its predecessors, Tallulah's Toe Shoes is a charming tale, one which captures a young ballet dancer's joy and frustration, as she slowly progresses in her chosen field. As always, I liked both the titular heroine and her dancing brother, whose inclusion emphasizes that ballet isn't just for girls, while also inserting some family drama (sibling rivalry and sibling cooperation) into the larger dance story. The artwork by Alexandra Boiger, done in watercolor, is darling. The decorative endpapers, showing the Lilac Fairy demonstrating the échappé on pointe, and Tallulah demonstrating the demi-pointe, add to the visual appeal. Recommended to young ballet lovers, and to readers who enjoyed the first two Tallulah books. ( )
