Quand le coeur mène la danse... La robe cousue par Nathalia pour le premier rôle du ballet « La Reine des Neiges » est magnifique. Mais hélas, elle disparaît du jour au lendemain du local à costumes ! Accusée à tort par ses camarades de Studio Danse, Carla va tout faire pour la retrouver. Trompée par de nombreuses fausses pistes, la jeune danseuse va avoir du mal à mener son enquête. Surtout que, comme Julie, Alia et Luce, il faut qu'elle travaille d'arrache-pied en vue du ballet qui approche. Reine des Neiges et Reine des détectives, Carla aimerait triompher sur tous les tableaux. Mais va-t-elle y arriver ?
Ik had deze bijna overgeslagen vanwege de Frozen cover en het toneelstuk. Maar ik kon hem toch niet laten liggen, want ja, het is nog steeds een nieuwe Dance Academy en daar komen niet genoeg van uit. Wel een leuk verhaal en toch een mooie dans. Al werd dat gedoe met die jurk erggggg vervelend. Kom op, een keer is leuk, twee keer OK, maar 5 of meer? Kom op. En die rivaliteit... *zucht*
Dance Class is one of the most circulated graphic novels series in my library. The kids love the stories about the dancers at Dance School, so I decided to finally sit down with a book that I got from Papercutz's Virtual ALA email and see what the hubbub is about. I get it: it's just a fun series! The adventures of the younger dancers and the teen dancers is good-natured and fun, with this latest storyline centering on the school's upcoming production of The Snow Queen, and the beautiful new dress to be worn by the show's star.... if they can get the dress to stop disappearing! It's an amusing series of miscommunications and misunderstandings as the dancers get ready to put on their show.
Brightly illustrated with cartoon characters, fun dialogue and silly sight gags, like the dancer who's menaced by a classmate - in her dreams! - this is a book that appeals to Loud House, Sisters, and Chloe readers. The cover is begging for Frozen fans to devour this book in a single sitting, and they will.
I think this book is really good its a book with comedy and mystery's and dance class it has good description and blaming people. The main character is Julie she's a helpful friend and responsible.
Dance Class: Letting It Go is about a stunning "Snow Queen" dress going missing before the big performance. The blame falls on Carla. Carla, with the help of her friends, must save the dress to prove herself innocent and to save the show. It was a cute read geared for younger readers. I did not feel like I had missed out on anything by not reading previous books in the series.
This book was given to me an an ARC from the publisher through NetGalley in an exchange for an honest review. I was not compensated in any way.
ARC Copy...although the fledgling ballet dancers are going to love the slice of life dynamics and hijinks involving daily dance lessons, a missing dress and social jinxes. Interesting the story of the ballet resembles the original fairytale more but...the visual similarities of the ballet also seems VERY close to the Disney movie (even the subtitle is punning Frozen)
