Work InformationDance! Dance! Underpants! by Bob Shea
![]() None No current Talk conversations about this book. ![]() ![]() This is a cute book geared to very young readers. Ballet Cat wants Butterbear to do jumps in ballet. Butterbear has lots of excused about why she can not do it. Ballet Cat finally finds out that she does not want anyone to see her underpants. Ballet Cat convinces her to try and that she will be so good, that no one will notice her underpants. Simple text with few words but adorable pictures. This book talking about being self-conscious has a cute message but little ones might not get it, as they do not seem to be very self-conscious to begin with. I received a copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. That exuberant ballet-loving feline whose story began in Ballet Cat: The Totally Secret Secret returns in this second amusing early reader, this time trying to convince her friend Butter Bear to take a high leap in their dance routine. Butter Bear has other ideas however, and finds lots of funny ways to stall, from a professed desire to eat cereal (lots of it!) to the need to go (in the woods). When Ballet Cat has finally had enough, and demands to know why Butter Bear won't leap, the desperate bear reveals all: their watching friends are Underpants Peepers, and might laugh at her underwear... As with the first entry in this series (hopefully ongoing), Ballet Cat: Dance! Dance! Underpants! taps into the language and humor of young children, who will be particularly amused by the Underpants Peepers' sing-song chorus demanding underwear. Ballet Cat manages to convince Butter Bear that it is the ballet itself that matters, but this doesn't put an end to the silly fun, as the reader gets a glimpse of our feline heroine's own underpants at the end. The artwork here is fun, with cartoon figures on brightly-colored pages, and text is dialogue bubbles. Recommended to early readers who appreciate silly fun, and to anyone who enjoyed the first Ballet Cat story. no reviews | add a review
