The Night Before the Nutcracker

American Ballet Theater

Written by John Robert Allman, Illustrated by Julianna Swaney

Absolutely adorable! There is a student in my school who gravitates to ballet books each time they come in–this one will be no exception. The rhyming is beautiful and the illustrations are so sweet. It not only tells of how to prepare to perform in a ballet, but also what the story of The Nutcracker entails. I enjoyed reading it and I am not even a huge fan of the ballet. Cannot wait to add this book to our collection!
