For the youngest dance enthusiasts, this is a pitch-perfect introduction to ballet. Preschooler Bea attends class with four girls and two boys. They demonstrate the five ballet positions and show four ways dancers move their feet as well as a split, an arabesque, and an attitude. The illustrations' understated style keeps the focus on the children, each of whom is a distinctive character.
