Vampirina Ballerina

(2) K-3 Illustrated by LeUyen Pham. A young vampire begins dance lessons (at night), works hard, perseveres through doubts and missteps, and eventually makes a successful debut performance. Aside from a few vampire-student-specific tips (watch the fangs; don't trip on your cape), Pace's encouraging text reads like an advice book for any young dancer. Pham's illustrations steal the show, offering plenty of visual jokes for both vampire fans and balletomanes.
