Review:
“Energetic and child-friendly...Jeffers’s soft watercolors...capture both the drama of the classic story and the elegance of choreography.” (Publishers Weekly)

“{Jeffers’s] romantic, detail-rich illustrations are based on the Balanchine ballet...Jeffers offers a satisfying extension” (The Horn Book)

“Jeffers’ lush watercolors...will wholly satisfy families...this treatment will earn curtain calls galore.” (ALA Booklist)

“Skillfully retold with just a few lines of text per page...an excellent introduction to the ballet for younger children.” (Kirkus Reviews (starred review))
