Meet Alice by Davina Bell, ill. Lucia Masciullo, Puffin Books, ISBN 9780143306290
This is the first book of four in a series about a girl who likes ballet and dreams to be a professional dancer. When war hits, that dream is proving to be hard, especially when her ballet teacher is taken away because she is part German. Alice has to face the truth that everything is not okay.
I really liked this book because I love ballet too. This is one of the Our Australian Girl series and I’ve been reading books from this series for a long time. This is one of the best series I have read from their range.
I recommend this book for children aged 8+. It’s very educational.
