I know people would flip for a "where are they now" story if she was ever interesting in doing that. People really love that story and it really made such an impact on the lives of so many little girls.Burgin Streetmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13473712188879858952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-30920764361178737902011-03-31T22:33:48.465-05:002011-03-31T22:33:48.465-05:00Its funny reading this because the young dancer fr...Its funny reading this because the young dancer from "A Very Young Dancer", Stephanie, is my mom's best friend and is my neighbor! She is truly a lovely woman and is doing great. She let me read the original copy of the book which is signed by her. I was blown away by her childhood. I love her!quesadillanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-79766290530634768482009-01-27T22:28:00.000-06:002009-01-27T22:28:00.000-06:00This "little dancer" is currently my youth group l...This "little dancer" is currently my youth group leader at my church...

Regarding children's ballet books, have you ever heard of Louis Untermayer's Tales from the Ballet? The illustrations are pretty fascinating.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-61870465240810912372008-09-14T04:00:00.000-05:002008-09-14T04:00:00.000-05:00Oh my goodness I loved this book too.

I used to read this over and over dreaming that I would have a part in the Nutcracker. <BR/>I remember the black and white photography is beautiful.<BR/>I don't know how I missed this when you originally posted it but I'm excited I've seen it now.Lou@weheartbookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16529927833609437781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-68266286263090592642008-07-31T21:10:00.000-05:002008-07-31T21:10:00.000-05:00i know i know... i love i lovei know i know... i love i loveBurgin Streetmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13473712188879858952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-44287259378446410042008-07-28T11:59:00.000-05:002008-07-28T11:59:00.000-05:00I love these - I have the whole set.I love these - I have the whole set.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16544328713240219175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-23035155569855347922008-07-23T11:03:00.000-05:002008-07-23T11:03:00.000-05:00Oh man, a blast from the past!!

Seeing the Nutcracker at Lincoln Center was that much more magical for having read this book as a little girl.<BR/><BR/>For some reason I associate this book with The Little Duck by Judy Dunn.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for helping to keep all these great (book) memories alive for me!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
