Synopsis

What could be better than Christmas? Christmas in London, that's what! Julie, Lucie, and Alia are excited to get a letter from their friend Prune, inviting them to visit her in England. This is going to be the vacation of a lifetime! The only problem is that Prune doesn't exactly have time off in mind; she wants the girls to help her pull off a Christmas musical, which wouldn't be too bad if rival Carla hadn't come along for the occasion, as well. The competition will be stiff, and the girls will have to use all their dance skills to make this a yuletide memory for the ages!

From Booklist:

Julie, Lucie, and Alia are invited by their friend Prune to come to England over Christmas break and dance with her in a musical. If only the mean-spirited Carla weren’t tagging along! The latest volume of the Dance Class graphic-novel series has the same high spirits of the previous volumes, though it breaks away from the single-page shorts format in the first half to focus on the trip to England. This slows the pace a bit, but readers will enjoy the many budding romances, and parents will appreciate the girls’ mature yet age-appropriate ways of handling those romances. Grades 4-8. --Snow Wildsmith
