[LM_NET] ELEM: BOOK REVIEW: The Jellybeans and the Big Dance by Laura Numeroff and Nate Evans, illustrated by Lynn Munsinger

[Toni Buzzeo <tonibuzzeo@TONIBUZZEO.COM>]

The Jellybeans and the Big Dance by Laura Numeroff and Nate Evans, 
illustrated by Lynn Munsinger. Abrams, 2008. 978-0-8109-9352-5

Emily loves to dance, but the three other girls in her class have 
their own individual passions other than dance-soccer, drawing, and 
reading. Emily is short on patience with the other girls until a trip 
to Petunia's candy store gives her an idea.  In a story about 
friendship, tolerance, individual strengths, and teamwork, Numeroff 
teaches subtle lessons with a light hand.  Munsinger's charming 
watercolor illustrations on this sparkly cover will draw in readers 
and keep them listening throughout the engaging story.  Suggested ages: 4-7.
