Review

This is the second book in the Magic Ballerina series.

Delphie's magic ballet shoes glowed again and took her back to Enchantia.  King Rat had put a spell on Enchantia making it winter all the time.  But Delphie managed to trick King Rat into breaking the spell so that it was summer again and then got to dance with the bluebirds.  In the end when Delphie returned to the real world, she was chosen to be the Bluebird in the dance studio's next show.

I really liked this story because it was fun and interesting and had a happy ending.

I also think the dance steps at the back of the book are fantastic.
