Simple, easy introduction to Swan Lake with lovely illustrations. The proof copy I read has musical samples, but I was not able to activate them so no comment on the music. But the book provides an easy introduction to Swan Lake.

I love this entry in the My First Orchestra series that introduces young readers to the ballet, The Nutcracker, through splendid art and magical musical excerpts. A great way to expose toddlers and babies to classical music and ballet productions.

My daughter and I so enjoyed this book at bedtime. She has recently been doing the Nutcracker performances for dance so this was such a fun book! Beautifully done!

This was a super cute board book version of Swan Lake! I think the illustrations were great & it gave just enough of the story to introduce the youngest kiddos to the classic story. Overall, just a delightful retelling!

Thanks to NetGalley, Jessica Courtney-Tickle, and Quarto Publishing for the chance to read and review.

This is a quick representation of the famous Swan Lake ballet. It is ideal for toddlers. The art style is lovely - amazing colours and characters.
My child is a bit old to comment on this now, but they liked what I liked about it. When my child was little, we read similar books with audio and my child enjoyed pressing the buttons. It is good that this interactive story exists. A nice way to engage the little ones and introduce them to art.
