Hello Little Fairies,
I am so excited to announce my new book to you, Lisée At The Ballet: The Nutcracker!
Lisée is so excited because her fairy friends from Blossom Grove are coming to dance with her in The Nutcracker ballet!
The hollow in the oak tree is always set up like a magnificent stage, and today it is all set up for their performance. She is so happy that Flicker, Berry, Glimmer, Evie, and Daisy are going to dance with her and that they will get to dress up as the different characters and use different props to dance out the various scenes of the ballet. As the enchanting Tchaikovsky music begins to play, they are no longer in Blossom Grove; they are in The Nutcracker!
Lisée At The Ballet: The Nutcracker introduces the story of Clara beginning with a magnificent party in a ballroom where she meets the Nutcracker Prince, and then onward to a battle between the little mice and soldiers. Next, she travels on a beautiful sleigh ride through a snowy pine forest, and finally meets the Sugar Plum Fairy in the Kingdom of the Sweets.
Join Lisée and the Fairies of Blossom Grove and dance out one character or all of them as you learn the story of one of the most loved ballets around!
I hope that, just like my wonderful ballet classes, my book will offer an outlet for imagination and creativity where ballerinas can be encouraged to dance more frequently at home. I also want to offer an avenue for those that don’t have the opportunity to come to my classes to express their creativity in a new way at home. Each book has suggested props that can be either found or made at home for children to dance and act out my stories with. My book is for that creative child who can’t stop twirling every time you turn on the music and loves to put on shows. I want all children everywhere to dance more often and as frequently as possible!
Best Wishes,
Isabelle Parenti
