I'm sure many of you are lucky enough, like me, to have a budding ballerina in your house. Ophelia wears one of her tutus everyday (see evidence here, here, and here!), and is constantly striking a pose with this little confident facial expression I hope I never forget. Since we are big on reading over here, I try to get books that reflect her interests and thus have become quite the expert on ballet books. Here are some of our favorites:
1. Tallulah's Tutu- the first of a series.
2. Ella Bella Ballerina - this is a series too, and is so beautifully illustrated.
3. Love is a Tutu- a board book for the tiniest ballerina.
4. Miss Lina's Ballerinas - I love the rhythm of this one, and it's also super pretty!
5. Fancy Nancy and the Mermaid Ballet
6. Fancy Nancy, Budding Ballerina- had to include Nancy!
7. I Wear My Tutu Everywhere - might inspire copycats!
8. I Had A Favorite Dress- so beautiful.
Also- here are a couple of recent tutu dress acquisitions that Ophelia recommends. I'm serious, she picked these off my computer screen and was despondent that they weren't in the mailbox IMMEDIATELY.
