About the Author
Darcey Bussell is a world famous Prima Ballerina. She joined the Royal Ballet School when she was 13 and, despite starting later than most of the other students, became a Principal of the Royal Ballet at just 19, at the same time the youngets ballerina ever to be given this honour. Darcey received both the OBE and CBE awards during her time with the Royal Ballet, and since officially retiring in 2007 she has teamed up with Katherine Jenkins in the phenomenally successful Viva la Diva. She is married with two daughters.
Review
This is a special Christmas edition in the Magic Ballerina series.
I read this book when I was preparing for my own end of year dance show so I knew exactly how Delphie was feeling - both excited and a little bit nervous.
I really enjoyed this book because it was all about Christmas in Enchantia. I was worried that King Rat would ruin Christmas for everyone but was glad that Delphie managed to rescue the elves and get the magical Christmas Tree back. It was quite exciting.
