A lively and encouraging picture book celebrating boys who love to
dance, from the renowned American Ballet Theatre.
Boys who love to dance are center stage in this encouraging, positive,
rhyming picture book about guys who love to pirouette, jeté, and
plié. Created in partnership with the American Ballet Theatre and with
the input of their company's male dancers, here is a book that shows
ballet is for everyone.
Written by the acclaimed author of A Is for Audra: Broadway's Leading
Ladies from A to Z, this book subtly seeks to address the prejudice
toward boys and ballet by showing the skill, hard work, strength, and
smarts is takes to be a dancer. Fun and buoyant illustrations show boys
of a variety of ages and ethnicities, making this the ideal book for any
boy who loves dance. An afterword with photos and interviews with some
of ABT's male dancers completes this empowering and joyful picture book.
