Dance
By Andree Grau
Another juvenile non-fiction from the DK Eyewitness series. I love the series but it always takes me so long to read one of their books. Again there are lots of beautiful pictures and some really high quality information. I picked up this book with a general background in things dance related some interest in ballet and a lot of interest and experience in ballroom dancing. There were a couple of things about the ballroom I didn't really agree with as it was a poor choice of wording but overall I found the book interesting. I definitely learned some new things and I was happy to see so many images and blurbs relating to Asian dance forms I was less familiar with. I would love to see this series branch out and do more specific books towards ballet/tap/jazz, ballroom, folk dances and Asian dance forms. I may need to do some more research and see if I can find other books that may be better.
