Book Review: Must have in your library! Classic
Summary: 5 Stars
My daughters have loved this story! I think it makes a great gift too!
I have twins and although there are some spoiled twins in the book, these two ballerinas come to life after having been loved!.
Great story about excesses and what really matters. Love!
The pictures are great and this one is sure to be a new favorite! Worth buying in Hardcover!
Summary of The Jewel Box Ballerinas
"I'LL TAKE TWO!" That's what Bibi Branchflower says about everything. She has two houses, two hats (exactly alike), and two silly dogs. But she doesn't have a single friend. When she comes across a beautiful jewel box, of course she wants two of them. Though there's only one like it in all the world, inside two dancers spin. Perfect! The shopkeeper explains that the box is enchanted - all who look on the ballerinas will see sorrow in their faces. Soon Bibi becomes more concerned with her sad ballerinas than with worldly riches. What will make them happy? It is her love that finally transforms them into living, breathing, happy children - and gives Bibi two real friends.Friendship Books
