A dream comes true for a girl who loves tutus, pointe shoes, and dancing on tiptoeThe girl in this story loves to stretch, to pose, to point her toes, to swirl and twirl and leap She practices new steps every day. All her efforts are rewarded when one special day, she gets to dance in a performance with her favorite ballerina. "Dear Ballerina," the girl writes, "I dream of being a dancer just like you." The pictures in the book take the reader behind the scenes of the ballet to a practice room, a costume room, and the wings of the stage. At last, the curtain goes up, and the girl and her idol dance. Their tutus swirl together "Dancing makes me happy " the little ballerina says. A touching story about dance, passion, effort, and intergenerational mentorship. The five ballet positions are illustrated, and behind-the-scene secrets are revealed. Back matter provides interesting information about point shoes, tutus, and the contents of a ballet bag. The author-illustrator is the mother of a little girl who has grown up to be a professional ballerina with New York City Ballet. This book was inspired by letters Lydia Wellington wrote to dancers she admired, as well as letters she has received from young fans. Every detail in this book is filled with joy and love and is authentic and accurate.
A glittery cover makes Dear Ballerina a perfect gift for ballet recitals. A great choice for fans of Angelina Ballerina.

Perfect organizer
Color: Cream, Size: 2-Layer, Color: Cream, Size: 2-Layer
This organizer is cute and compact but has a place for every type of jewelry which is what I was looking for. Its not bulky and i love how the two inner sections pull away to reveal a pretty large storage section for larger or micellaneous items. Would recommend.

Large and Conveniently Versatile
Color: Black, Size: Extra Large
This isn't quite what I was expecting but it is amazing. It is larger, sturdier, and heavier than what I expected. I emptied 4 other large decorative boxes of jewelry and relocated them into this. I cannot believe what it holds. The variety of drawer designes are perfect. There are ideal spaces for my chunky necklaces and bracelets. The side hooks are perfect for a multitude of light necklaces and chains. Love the top tray for a gazillion stud earrings. For the first time I have one location for my jewelry where I can actually see what is there without digging. It is a little too big for my dresser but the convenience is worth it. I got the black because it was the least expensive. It is a classy look. The color and design would suit a guy with lots of watches and bling or a gal with a variety of styles of jewely from chunky to light filigree. It is heavy even before loading it with jewelry. The drawers can easily be reconfigured with convenient criss cross dividers. All are nicely, lightly lined. It arrived well packaged with corner protectors. There was a bit of a smell but it was gone after airing it overnight in the bathroom.

Classic and roomy jewelry box in black
Color: Black, Size: Extra Large
This jewelry box exceeded my expectations. It is sturdy, yet classic, and well organized; it sits nicely on top of a dresser. The compartments provide a lot of room for small to larger pieces, with plenty of hooks for necklaces and a variety of layouts in the drawers. The pulls are small enough so as not to overwhelm, yet clearly well thought out in design and use. I really recommend this jewelry box!
