'This bubbly, inclusive story, filled with meticulous detail, will be a winner for 7+ dance fanatics' - Guardian, on Ballet Besties: Yara's Chance to Dance
Pirouette your way into the Shimmer & Shine dance studio, where the ballet besties are ready to put on a show!
Dante loves nothing more than scoring goals on the football pitch then racing to Shimmer & Shine to ace his pas de chats.
But when his football friends start to tease him for his passion, Dante struggles to find the confidence to keep doing the two things he loves most.
Will encouraging Miss Diamond to enter their class into a dance competition be just what Dante needs to prove how fantastic dance can be? Will their adaptation of Beauty and the Beast win over his friends? Or will Dante have to put his own modern spin on things to truly shine?
A fun, inclusive and accessible series that will bring the joy of dance to young readers!
