In four rows of two, Miss Lina’s eight ballerinas—Christina, Edwina, Sabrina, Justina, Katrina, Bettina, Marina, and Nina—dance to the park, at the zoo, and even while doing their schoolwork. They are one perfect act, but when Miss Lina introduces Regina, a new girl, the group of nine’s steps become a mess.

Praise for Miss Lina's Ballerinas

“An infectiously rhyming text not a little reminiscent of Madeline….Author and illustrator have teamed up for a lovely story about friendship, ballet and grouping numbers. Davenier’s colorful illustrations are filled with humor, movement and lovely shades of pink…young readers, budding ballerinas or not, will enjoy the details of the ballet studio and the joie de vivre of the nine young ladies.”                                                    --  Kirkus Reviews

"...the book is a charmer." -- Publishers Weekly
