(2) K-3 Jeffers's romantic, detail-rich illustrations are based on the Balanchine ballet, all the way down to the costumes, sets, and even some staging. Her calm, introspective tone brings out the characters' emotional struggles. This is a satisfying extension for an audience already under the spell of the ballet.
