Miss Lina's Ballerinas

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Christine Davenier. In the town of Messina, "eight little girls studied dance with Miss Lina." They dance, in four lines of two, while reading, shopping, and playing at the beach--until a ninth girl joins their ranks and throws off their system. Maccarone's lilting rhymes recall Madeleine. Davenier's pink-heavy illustrations are always elegant, even when showing the girls getting all tangled up.
