His books are universal kid pleasers, and this new easy reader series is sure to find loyal fans. Vibrant colors, bold lines, and simple text elevate the standard easy reader plot of best-friends-who-must-work-through-a-difference, giving&nbsp;it a fresh splash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ballet Cat and Sparkles the Pony are best friends. Ballet Cat, as you may imagine,&nbsp;<em>loves<\/em>&nbsp;ballet: swirling, dancing, leaping. Sure that everyone shares her enthusiasm, she urges\u2014no, demands\u2014that Sparkles join in, refusing to play anything that doesn&#8217;t allow ballet-related moves (i.e. checkers). When Sparkles reacts glumly, Ballet Cat knows&nbsp;he&#8217;s harboring a secret; ballerinas can tell these things. Sparkles <em>is<\/em> harboring a secret: a&nbsp;<em>secret<\/em>&nbsp;secret. Not to be outdone,&nbsp;Ballet Cat is also harboring a secret. In a twist reminiscent of Willems&#8217; Elephant and Piggie books, all is well at the end. New readers will enjoy both the silliness and the reminder that real friends make sacrifices for each&nbsp;other in this cute new series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cautions:<\/strong> none<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Overall Rating: 4 (out of 5)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Artistic Rating: 4<\/li><li>Worldview Rating: 4<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Categories:<\/strong>&nbsp;Easy Readers, Character Values<br><em>Cover image from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\">Amazon<\/a>; free review copy via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.netgalley.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">netgalley<\/a> in return for a fair review<\/em><br><iframe style=\"width: 120px; height: 240px;\" data-src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;OneJS=1&amp;Operation=GetAdHtml&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;source=ss&amp;ref=ss_til&amp;ad_type=product_link&amp;tracking_id=redeemedreade-20&amp;marketplace=amazon&amp;region=US&amp;placement=1484713788&amp;asins=1484713788&amp;linkId=JPXLYKOLRFHSNLI5&amp;show_border=true&amp;link_opens_in_new_window=true\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\">&amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;br \/&amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;<\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ballet Cat: The Totally Secret Secret by Bob Shea.
