5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Educational Toy for Your Little Ballerina!, September 20, 2002

Not only are the Angelina Ballerina books wonderful - all about a very strong willed little girl/mouse who lives out her dreams and learns many a good lesson in the process - but the Angelina Ballerina dolls (that are made by the American Girl Company) are equally as fabulous. I bought this set for my 3-year-old niece and I hope to add to her collection of both Angelina books and accessories for years to come. There is a book for every occasion (Christmas, birthdays, new siblings, new friends, school) and accessories for the doll to coordinate. There are also dolls for Angelina's little sister, her cousin and her best friend Alice. Plus tons of clothes, furniture and other fun stuff! It is so great to have toys that are quality made and so educational as well. You can not go wrong with Angelina Ballerina!

5.0 out of 5 stars The ultimate gift for your little ballerina wannabe., July 31, 2002

I bought this for my 3 year old daughter after we discovered Angelina through her videos. The story and artwork is beautiful and my daughter loves the book. It inspired her to want to attend dance class which she now does. Best of all this book comes with an adorable Angelina doll. My daughter takes it everywhere. Now she even wants us to call her Kaylie Angelina. Angelina is a great role model for any little girl. Every aspiring ballet dancer my daughter's age that I know of just loves her. This is a great set and I would recommend it to everyone.

4.0 out of 5 stars Review, March 17, 2002

This review is from: Angelina Ballerina with Doll (Hardcover)

This is a book about a little mouse that wanted so much to be a ballerina. She did nothing but dance and that got her into trouble. She would dance all over the place and bump into thing and knock things over. Everyone was getting sick and tired of Angelina ruining everything. One day her parents told her that she needed to stop dancing all the time because it was ruining things. She did stop and her parents sent her to ballet classes. This made her happy and now she wasn't dancing all over the place and ruining things. Everyone was happy and Angelina took lessons for many years and became a famous ballerina.
This was a really great book. It teaches children that they can be whatever they want to be but they can't let it get in the way of the rest of their life and I think the author did a really great job of getting that point across. Sometimes people think that things are just a momentary obsession but that is really what Angelina wanted to do with her life. She wanted to be a ballerina and she did it and proved that she really could do it.
