This was partly to meet a prompt for my bday reading challenge and partly because I'm doing research on tutu related gifts for a Little Miss who is turning 3 next month and loves her tutu. Honestly, I think having audiobooks for kids is a great idea BUT this one would definitely be better used in conjunction with the print copy, as there were moments they referred to something and I assume the reason I didn't understand is because I didn't have the pictures.

I was never a ballerina and really never inspired to be one either but I thought why not when I saw Mia in her tutu. Mia has a problem - she packed the wrong tutu! Her friend Ruby also has a shared problem - they both can't help tripping everywhere. What are they going to do when they are asked to dance in front of the whole class?

This was lovely to read especially with girls (boys too if they love dance). There is something about ballerina's that little girls seem to love. The writing in Mia's story was simple but not too simple for a child that already knows how to read some. The artwork and style of the story were really cute especially with all those animal dancers in tutus. This was a nice, cute story that had the main characters tossing caution to the win because who cares about tripping when you are trying to have fun?
