The Very Fairy Princess Takes The Stage by Julie Andrews Edwards, Emma Walton Hamilton

The Very Fairy Princess Takes The Stage (Very Fairy Princess)

by Julie Andrews Edwards and Emma Walton Hamilton

Everyone's favorite fairy princess is back and just in time for her ballet recital in this new picture book addition to the Julie Andrews Collection. At first, when Gerry is cast as the Court Jester and not the Crystal Princess, she is dismayed -- nothing is pink and no one can see her crown under her silly jester hat! But just as the recital looks like it's headed for disaster, our ever-energetic very fairy princess swoops in to save the day!

Gerry's sparkle radiates from the page once more through Christine Davenier's whimsically elegant illustrations in this spirited, ballet-themed follow-up to The Very Fairy Princess from the renowned mother-daughter team of Julie Andrews and Emma Walton Hamilton.

I loved [b:The Very Fairy Princess|7519327|The Very Fairy Princess|Julie Andrews|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1344268876s/7519327.jpg|9736049] and in general I love Julie Andrews and books covered in glitter! With it being pink and purple nothing could make it better except maybe the story within. It is so precious to teach a child that every part in a play or recital is special from the princess to the jester. I am so glad to have this one to share with my daughters. Even though this is not a religious book I think it will be a great one to help explain how every part of the Body of Christ is an important working feature in God's plan.

*Thanks to Little Brown for providing a copy for review.*
