Ivy and Bean Doomed to Dance

Summary

In the sixth entry in the New York Times–bestselling series, two best friends learn about ballet, promises, and how to be a squid.Finally! After months of begging their parents for ballet lessons, Ivy and Bean finally get what they want . . . well, not exactly. Much to their surprise, it turns out ballet lessons do not cover karate chops and roundhouse kicks. The girls have no interest in learning how to dance gracefully, but they promised their parents they would finish the entire ballet course! When it comes time for Ivy and Bean to participate in the ocean-themed class recital, the girls must figure out a way to get out of it without breaking their promises.Praise for Doomed to Dance"Another pleasing adventure, engagingly illustrated and fun for new readers." —Booklist "The story is solidly written, and the expressive black-and-white illustrations, some full page, add to the humor. Early chapter-book readers will appreciate and relate to the friends' dilemma." —School Library Journal
