An onomatopoeic representation of a little girlâs experience at the ballet describes the swish of the young audience memberâs dress and the tick-tick-tick of the conductorâs baton through the 12 bongs of the clock and the pitter-patter of the dancersâ feet. Illustrations. - Ingram Publishing Services
Discover the sights, sounds and magic of a night at the ballet that will prepare even the youngest of children for their first theatrical experience
Beep! Beep! go the taxis. Voof! go the velvet curtains. The Nutcracker ballet and New York Cityâs David H. Koch Theater come to life in this onomatopoeic representation of a little girlâs experience at the ballet. From the swish of her dress and the tick-tick-tick of the conductorâs baton to the twelve bongs of the clock and the pitter-patter of dancersâ feet, this special evening is filled with sensory treats for the eyes and especially the ears. And did she enjoy the ballet? The answer is a big smooch on her fatherâs cheek.
Written by Mireille Messier, Nutcracker Night is a celebration of a Christmas classic that is often a childâs first experience of the ballet. Award-winning illustrator Gabrielle Grimard infuses each scene with warm holiday colors and a richness that will make young readers feel they are really there. An authorâs note enriches the text with further information and a brief summary of the famous ballet.
