A landmark event in the life of all dancers! The Night Before My Dance Recital shouts "bravo!" to all those first jete-ing on stage.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING SERIES • Putting an uplifting spin on a classic poem, this charmingly illustrated and lyrical picture book prepares kids—and their parents!—for a landmark event in the life of all dancers!

It's the night before a young girl's first dance recital. At the dress rehearsal, she and her class go over the steps one last time. What if she messes up? she worries. But the next day, she's ready to perform. When the class spins left she spins right! Without missing a beat, she keeps on dancing and smiling. The Night Before My Dance Recital celebrates this with humor, warmth, and engaging illustrations by Amy Wummer.

The Night Before series helps young readers—and their parents!—explore big milestones in an encouraging, uplifting way.
