'What a magical book. My daughters, at their young age, love the beautiful illustrations' --Darcey Bussell
'The illustrations by Rebecca Guay are well executed in an ornate pre- raphaelite style; each page has bands of flowers down the side, and even the page numbers are decorated with roses... The choice of ballet stories [includes Shim Chung]... This unusual addition to a little girl's book of ballet stories lifts it out of the norm, and the double page painting of Shim Chung swimming with dolphins is beautiful.' --Dance Expression
