Balletlover - Balletmania
written by on 19.04. at 04:51:03 >>>Anyway, today I found one of the swankiest books about ballet ever, by good ol' DK Publishing (if someone offered me the chance to get every book in print by a single publisher, I'd pick DK without hesitation. They make exceptionally cool kid's reference books like the "eyewitness" series, and Stephen Biesty's impeccably illustrated "cross-section" books, not to mention their mega-wicked Star Wars books...) Anyway, this one's called "DK Superguides-Ballet" and it's written by pointe-babe Darcey Bussel. It features beautiful full-color photography (unfortunately, mostly of young kids,) lot's of basic, easy-to digest info about the art, and even some side-trips into ethnic and jazz dance. It's only $9.95 new (just in case you don't have the luck-of-the-thrift, as I seem to,) and it's ISBN is: 0-7894-5429-7. -Depon Answers to this message: |
