Ellie's Chance to Dance #1 (Royal Ballet School Diaries)

A nice book. My granddaughter loves it. Thank you

This book is a great story about the wonders of dancing, and the stresses of life. Being a dancer myself, I can say that the dance classes in the book are really realistic. Great read for any young reader interested in dance and the beauty of ballet.

Perfect book for a young reader.

This is a charming book that makes the ballet world come alive for its young students. Anyone who dreams of becoming a ballerina, especially those that want to study at the Royal Ballet School, will love this book. It describes ballet classes and the school itself. The narrator of the story is Ellie, who is moving to England with her widowed mother who just got a new job there. Now Ellie is able to attend an audition for the R.B.S. junior associate program. Ellis goes through all the issues with moving to a different country, meeting new friends, trying to keep old ones, and also seeing her mother fall in love with someone. This story will please anyone interested in ballet, especially younger ones.

My daughter who has ballet lessons loves to read this series.
