Angelina Ballerina Chapter Books

Everyone’s favorite ballet dancer, Angelina Ballerina has been released in chapter book form. Angelina danced into the hearts of young, aspiring ballet dancers in 1983. She has since appeared in over 60 books. Angelina Ballerina was originally written with a PK-K interest level or ages 2-5. With Angelina Ballerina expanding into chapter book form, the interest level now ranges from PK-3 grade or ages 2-8. She taught young children about friendship, the fun of dressing up, dreaming big, new adventures, and learning to be a ballet dancer through trial and effort. While she may fall sometimes, she always gets back up and tries again.

The two new chapter books, Angelina Ballerina’s Ballet Tour and Best Big Sister Ever!, continue with charming stories of Angelina, now 11 years old. In Angelina Ballerina’s Ballet Tour, she experiences traveling with her tour group away from home. In the special dance, Mouserella, Angelina does not get the part she wants. But she learns that it is not always her turn to take the lead and dancing on tour is harder than she originally thought.

In Best Big Sister Ever!, Angelina’s little sister Polly is starting school. Polly is nervous and would really prefer to stay home. Angelina tells her she will look for her at recess. “What if you can’t find me?” Polly asked. “Don’t worry. Big sisters always look out for little sisters” Angelina said. Soon after Angelina and her friends plan a welcome ballet show for all the new mouselings.

These books are full of kindness, character, and fun. They quietly teach taking turns, thinking of others, and quality character traits we want our children to learn. These 64-page chapter books are the perfect next step for Angelina fans. Pick up your copy here today!
