A first introduction to ballet movement

Jennifer Adams’s board-book adaptation of *The Nutcracker* draws on familiar images from the Christmas-time ballet to introduce basic movement vocabulary. Soldiers march, mice prance, snowflakes swirl, dolls bend, and buffoons skip, pairing each action with a colorful illustration. The result brings dance terms into a compact picture-book setting, with the ballet serving as the framework for observing different kinds of movement.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Babies and toddlers beginning to explore movement words
  • Families introducing young children to ballet imagery
  • Caregivers looking for a board book to share together
