When he takes shelter in a theater, a young mouse meets a prima ballerina and learns that he was born to dance. After barely escaping a hungry cat, the mouse is startled to find a grand old theater, brightly lit and filled with music. Enchanted by the sound, he finds himself inspired to dance. He sets to work finding a spot where the humans of the theater won't trouble him, determined to make this place his new home.But when he discovers a cozy, wool-lined satin bed-a ballerina's toe shoe-the tiny creature also finds a new friend. Céleste, the ballerina, names him Tendu and offers him a safe place to settle-and a new dance partner to practice with!With softly colored illustrations, Jennifer Bell's mouse-eye view of the theater is luxuriously detailed, from the ornate chandeliers to the carefully-organized clutter of the costume department to the rose wallpaper of the dancer's dressing room. The cozy warmth of Tendu's new home is as irresistable as the tiny bow-bedecked dancer himself. Filled with all the drama of a ballet, this story is perfect for aspiring dancers.
