Dragons Don't Dance Ballet by Jennifer Carson

You have to read the book to find out, but I adore him. I also want to add, that Isaiah is my favorite character after Serenity. Serenity has been through so much and what she stumbles into… well, that’s what makes the story. Serenity is such a neat individual and I love that the book reads as though she really is the one sharing. I could not and did not want to stop reading, but I didn’t want the story to end either! (Talk about a conundrum!) And then Serenity herself – she has traits of a savant and as a psychology major I was done for. Jennifer’s work has been featured in national magazines including: Cloth, Paper, Scissors, Faerie Magazine, Soft Dolls and Animals, Teddy Bear and Friends, and Dolls United.Jennifer’s work has been featured in national magazines including: Cloth, Paper, Scissors, Faerie Magazine, Soft Dolls and Animals, Teddy Bear and Friends, and Dolls United.The prologue of A Measure of Serenity had me hooked from the very beginning. Her artwork and patterns can be seen online at. Besides telling tales, Jennifer likes to create fantasy creatures and characters and publishes her own sewing patterns. She grew up on a steady diet of Muppet movies and Renaissance faires and would occasionally be caught reading under the blankets with a flashlight. Jennifer Carson lives in Michigan with her husband, four sons and many furry friends.

I highly recommend this book and look forward to sharing it with all the people, young and old, in my life. From the adorable brightly-colored illustrations to the numerous teachable moments, this book really has it all! Readers of all ages will enjoy and learn with Dragon’s Don’t Dance Ballet and they will have a good time doing it! Thank you to iRead Book Tours and the author for my copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.ĭragon’s Don’t Dance Ballet by, Jennifer Carson is such a sweet book! There’s so much going on in there I don’t know where to begin. But Esmerelda isn’t ready to give up–and neither is Harold! Dragons Don’t Dance Ballet is a whimsical picture book that challenges body image expectations and encourages little ones to go for their dreams.

Encouraged by her friend Harold to audition, Esmeralda takes a leap of faith only to discover that she doesn’t quite fit in with the other ballerinas. Esmeralda Dragon works the spotlight at the Metropolitan Ballet, but what she really wants to do is dance.
