5.0 out of 5 stars A GREAT SHOW DESERVES A GREAT BOOK..., November 11, 2007

By	Anne Salazar "inveterate reader" (Huntington Beach, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A great TV show deserves a great book, and this is it! The book is printed on heavy, shiny paper with tons of color photos that include almost every couple from Season 1 through last year when Apolo and Julianne won. The last part of the book is photo after photo of Alec and Edyta demonstrating the different dances. Not so interesting! Why were they chosen when there is a bevy of beautiful people to chose from, for example, Maksim, Julianne, etc. But anyway, if you love the show, you will love this book. There is some instruction, and text on the differences between the various dances. Watch the show! Buy the book! Both are a lot of fun.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Buy, June 9, 2008

By	Helen Andrade "Helenika" (CAILFORNIA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a great book if you love pictures of the stars and a list of great Ballroom Dance Music. Not a lot of content, though.
