 Angelina is a pretty mouse who just wants to be a ballerina
Angelina is a pretty mouse who just wants to be a ballerina, and dances all the time - but she's so busy dancing she forgets about everyday things like cleaning her room or eating, and her parents don't know what to do with her. Their decision to bring her down to earth will change her life in this engaging classic story for ages 3 and older.
A lovely book
I recently received this book at a baby shower, and I think it is such a sweet story. I have since then given my niece the same book for her to enjoy.
An inspiring tale
My 2 year old daughter received this for her birthday this year and loves it! The story of Angelina, the little mouse who dreams of being a ballerina and keeps practising, to the exclusion of all else is something that strikes a chord in any one who has had a serious interest in something, be it dance, sports, etc. I would say that this book is not just for aspiring ballerinas, but for any child that is keen on pursuing an interest seriously. And I love the fact that towards the end, Angelina's parents take her passion for dancing seriously, and buy her a tu-tu & sign her up for classes...it gives hope to a child and that is absolutely priceless. A wonderful, inspiring tale of dreams that turn into reality. The illustrations are a delight too!
 For my Mom.
I bought this book for my mom. Lots of kids show up at her house.
a mom's review....
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!
