Tip of the Toes (A Ballerina Story) 小朋友練芭蕾舞

[Sorry! Free promotion period is over]
In Tip of the Toes (4.3 stars, with over 250 reviews) a young ballet dancer (ballerina) gets ready to dance in front of many people. Enjoy the beautiful pictures, and learn ballet vocabulary (mostly French words borrowed into English). Another special feature is that the story rhymes:

Plié is where I bend my knees,
up and down I move with ease.

Plié is a French word (pronounced /pli'e/ that means "bent"(法文 = 彎曲)
