Little Molly Butter has practiced over and over for her recital. Sometimes with her dance shoes on. Sometimes with them off. She needs them for her show. Where could they be hiding? This book is the second in the Billy and Molly Series.
Where are those missing dance shoes? Young ballerina Molly searches high and low for her treasured dance shoes, asking family members, retracing her steps, and practically taking the house apart on her quest. Frustrated, Molly nearly gives into despair. Can she find her dance shoes before the recital tonight, or is Molly doomed to miss out on performing her special dance?
Molly and the Lost Dance Shoes is a charming picture book for children. Just the right length for reading together or for young readers just starting on their own, this tale of a girl seeking her missing shoes is a story we can all readily identify with. As Molly retraces her steps, I completely understood her frustration as she combs through the entire house looking for something important. After all, how many of us have lost something we need after putting it "somewhere safe"?
Lovingly illustrated with bright colors, Molly's story gives excellent advice about finding lost items. The charming tale also gently shows the importance of putting things away, which is a good lesson for young and older readers alike.
Perfectly voicing the frustration of losing something important while coming to a happy conclusion, this whimsical tale is suited for ages 3 and above. A great choice for reading together or alone, readers across the spectrum can readily identify with a young girl's search for her lost shoes in Molly's heartfelt story.
