A is for arabesque, B is for Baryshnikov, and C is for Coppelia in this beautifully illustrated, rhyming A-Z of ballet terminology, stars, dances, positions, creators, history, and more. In partnership with the American Ballet Theatre, here is a book that fans will adore, from children just starting ballet to adults who avidly follow this graceful artform. Written by the acclaimed author of A Is for Audra- Broadway' s Leading Ladies from A-Z, the dazzling, creative wordplay forms a graceful pas de deux with the stylish, swooping lines and rich color of the sumptuous illustrations, making this a highly giftable book to give to any dance fan. A glossary of terms, biographies, and dance history completes this beautiful and informational volume.
