From the publisher

A ballet dream. A timeless sculpture. A story that dances into young hearts.

When young Marie enters the Paris Opera Ballet with nothing but hope and determination, she never imagines she'll become the inspiration for one of the most iconic sculptures in history. But artist Edgar Degas sees her potential--and together, they leave a lasting mark on the world of art.

Degas and the Little Dancer is a moving picture book biography by Laurence Anholt, part of the beloved Anholt's Artists series. With expressive watercolor illustrations and real Degas artwork, this book blends history, emotion, and storytelling in a way that captivates children and adults alike.

Why Parents and Educators Love It:

  • Inspires young readers to dream big and persevere
  • Introduces real art history through a heartfelt narrative
  • Ideal for classrooms, homeschools, or bedtime reading

Perfect for ages 6-9, this book connects readers to the world of ballet, creativity, and artistic legacy--while gently teaching empathy and resilience.

From a bestselling series that has introduced thousands of children to great artists, Degas and the Little Dancer is a timeless celebration of courage, imagination, and the magic of becoming a muse.
