Photographs by
Leyah Jensen.
Five young girls participate in their first ballet class. The pages lift up to show the moves, such as first position and relevé, and other class activities. Although the photographs are appealing, the format and occasional rhymes can be confusing. Also unfortunate is that the girl demonstrating first position does not have her heels touching.
