We follow a young monster from his first ballet class to his celebrated success at his first recital. That he is willing to work hard is evident. But just as clear is his fragile and endearing insecurity when it comes to trying something new. Old friends and new encourage him every step of the way, by getting him to follow through on coming to class, ignoring his occasional mistakes at the studio, and acknowledging his progress.The verses are clear, and easy to read aloud to a young child. Delightful illustrations help to move the story along. This very short book contains lessons about courage, perseverance, friendship, and so much more.
