FROM THE CRITICS
Publishers Weekly
Shaped like its title, My Ballet Bag by Elissa Held, illus. by Bethann Thornburgh, helps budding ballerinas pretend they're starring in a show. The pink carryall holds a removable brush, comb and bottle of hair spray, among other items; fabric accents give an authentic feel to tights and a fluffy tulle tutu. Pull-tabs draw the curtain as the recital begins; in the end, the dancer holds a bouquet of pop-up roses. (July) Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information.
