"Best-selling author Marilyn Singer's celebrated children's books have been named amongst the Top Ten Children's Books of the Year by Time. In this charming tale, Singer introduces Tallulah, a girl who wants nothing more than to be a ballerina. And not just any ballerina-a real one with a tutu! But when Tallulah finally gets to take a ballet class, she discovers that there's more to dancing than getting to wear a pretty, pink tutu."
"Marilyn Singer's award-winning children's novels and picture books have delighted readers for over 30 years. In this second tale featuring the pint-sized ballerina Talullah, our charming heroine is hoping for a solo performance in her school's production of The Frog Prince. When her lazy younger brother Beckett lands a big part, Talullah can't believe it. But before long, her feelings of jealousy turn to pride when she realizes Beckett needs her help to perform his best."
"Marilyn Singer has written all kinds of great books for children and young adults - picture books, fairy tales, mysteries, non-fiction, and novels - but poetry is her favorite. Singer is on a mission to 'knock poetry off its pedestal' and to introduce kids to the pleasing rhythms and powerful emotion of poems, but also to encourage kids to express themselves through verse."
