Ballerina Madeleine

After watching "Barbie and the Pink Shoes" this afternoon, Madeleine announced, "I'm an even BETTER dancer than Gisele!"  She then set out to prove her point.  What do you think?  Is she the crème de la crème or what?:




Julia was deeply influenced by the dancing in the movie as well, as you can see from her newest novel:

"Amelie did a little spin as she hung her coat.  She was a dancer.  'Haaahhh!  I have a great idea.  We'le have a Halloween party!'  Kristina exclaimed.  Just then Lillyanna's younger sister Emily came in.  'Mom says you have to finish your homework,' she said."

Woah.  A Halloween party, dancing, AND homework?  This book is off to a thrilling start! And on a side note, could my kids be MORE excited about Halloween?  It seems like Halloween books are a daily craft occurrence in the Rowe household.

I certainly don't think our kids use up enough paper.  We definitely need even MORE hand-written novels and creepy picture books around here, right??
