Ferguson, Sarah
Ballerina Rosie Illustrated
by Diane Goode Simon and Schuster,
2012. $16.99 PICTURE BOOK Content: G.
Rosie is a little girl that likes to dance. She dances with her stuffed animals and dances on the way to
school and she likes to wear her dance tutu doing everything, including
climbing trees. Rosie’s mom
decides that it is time for her to take dance lessons, but Rosie quickly learns
that dance lessons are harder than just dancing around the house and she starts
to wonder if she will ever be a real dancer. When she receives a pair of red ballet shoes she goes to
dance class and finally feels like she can do the steps that the teacher is
teaching.
The illustrations in
this book are simple and cute. It
is a great book about finding our confidence and working on our talents because
talents don’t just happen on their own.
The character will appeal to most little girls who like pink and
dancing.
