This classic Angelina Ballerina padded novelty picture book about an incredible invitation is back in a beautiful, refreshed edition with lovely letters, tickets, and a fold-out mini poster inside!
When Angelina Ballerina wins two tickets to a special royal production of the Cindermouse ballet, she is so excited, but it turns out that none of her friends are free to join her. Angelina looks for someone to share the performance with her in this sweet story that is told partly in printed letters and notes to and from Angelina and her friends in Chipping Cheddar—and even from royalty!
As readers open the envelopes and see what’s inside, the story takes an exciting twist that puts Angelina center stage. There is even a small poster readers can hang on their wall to inspire them to keep dancing, just like Angelina!
