Beginning in her studio, Miss Sylvie teaches dance to youthful students – the best job in the world.  A young girl, Isabelle, peers around the studio door with a strong desire to become a ballerina.  Isabelle practices ballet long and hard, ignoring other dance forms.  Her friends eventually drop out, but Isabelle continues ballet and eventually joins a Dance Academy.  She improves until, at last, she becomes a prima ballerina.  After many years of dancing around the world, she decides to retire and come home.  Her first visit is with Miss Sylvie, ready to become a teacher.  Isabelle buys the studio from Miss Sylvie and settles into teaching dance, the best job in the world.  “And then one day, a young girl peers through the studio door…”  The rich, pastel watercolor illustrations on white pages beautifully depict the elation, hard work, and loveliness of the craft.  A tribute to those who find joy in dance and to those who teach and inspire others.
