So excited to finally share the cover of my new book with you, guys! “Welcome to Ballet School”, written by the amazing ballerina @ashleybouder and published by @quartokids 🩰 It will be in bookstores in August, but it’s already available for preorder and would make a perfect gift for little dancers ⭐️

I loved getting the print proofs and checking every single detail so everything looked exactly as I wanted. The perfectionist in me is happy! Oh! And if you visit Ashley’s IG, she made an adorable sneak peek video with her daughter Violet 💜

#welcometoballetschool by @ashleybouder illustrations @juliabe @quarto.knows . . This is a wonderful introduction to ballet for young children with a cast of relatable characters. It starts by clearly showing and explaining the basics of ballet including the five classic ballet positions at the barre. The second half is dedicated to #sleepingbeautyballet. . .Children will love trying mime and hopefully it will inspire them to put on their own show. .One of the most important lessons any ballerina learns if you fall down to get up and to try again. . ..there's a list of famous ballet dancers to inspire at the back and a glossary. This is the perfect gift for budding dancers everywhere. https://www.instagram.com/p/CEZUjbjA65p/?igshid=170vax9mhzlwx
