Tallulah badly wants a tutu so her mom enrolls her in ballet. Tallulah’s Tutu by Marilyn Singer, illustrated by Alexandra Boiger Marilyn Singer has a gentle way of showing the ups and downs of life through Tallulah’s eyes as she dances ballet and Alexandra Boiger’s lovely watercolor illustrations will appeal to little girls and boys whether they like to dance or not. Tallulah works hard so why aren’t things happening faster? Her tutu? Her solo? Dancing on point? Her role in the Nutcracker? There’s always a gentle message of setting goals, overcoming obstacles and not getting discouraged in each of these four Tallulah ballet picture books as she progresses through her ballet classes. If you have a young ballerina - either girl or boy - this lovely picture book series might be hit at your house! It won’t be at mine so I am giving away all four books AND a pink tutu!
