 The Little Ballerinas' Triumphant Return to Form
[Latest line on the Little Ballerinas: the publishers have caught and corrected the misprint! That should be good news--or it could be bad news should this author become the next Emily Dickenson, Sylvia Plath, or Toni Morrison. A first edition with a missing letter "s" could drive the price up into rarefied collector's territory. Therefore, should you have the defective edition, be careful not to let your little ones get their hands on it!]
To the reviewer who issued the cryptic statement that she was "shocked" because the book has what must be a "misprint"--I was prepared to find something erotic, perverse, horrifying, nauseating, sensational, or even politically incorrect. It's just a lousy typo. Had the reviewer chosen to be more helpful, she might have specified what it is--the omission of the initial letter "s" in the word "show." If it disturbs you as much as the preceding reviewer, simply use a thin black pen to insert the wayward "s." Or make up another story to tell your young reader: "Show" me "how" (fill in the blank, "to do a pirouette"?). I don't think that a single typo damns a convivial, charming, communicative little story (my 3-year-old granddaughter didn't either). It's fine to point it out (keep those publishers and proof-readers on their toes!), but wasn't there something to talk about in addition to the errant "s"?
 Great Book!
This is a informative book for children who like ballet! Great pictures that show how to practice at home and what ballet classes look like.
 Misprint
There is an evident misprint on the back of the book. I am shocked it actually got published.
Ballerina Books
My niece is obsessed with all things ballet. She is 7 and loves all the color and pictures.

My little girl is four and she loved this book...a favorite!!!
