Hvordan kommer det seg? Av hvilken grunn? Hvorfor?, bind 54: Kom til balletten |

This title takes a peek inside ballet school and follows the classes there. Why does everyone have to warm up, stretch and learn to hold certain positions just so? How do you become a real ballerina, and what is involved in the profession?
A little journey into the past makes readers familiar with the first ballet dancers and choreographers, and introduces popular ballets. The very modern forms of dance are also presented, and can be roused into action by lifting flaps.
The final topic is an evening at the opera with a professional ballet ensemble. What do the theater and the stage look like? Which costumes will the dancers wear, and what is their makeup like?
The most important position, the proper positions for head, hands and arms, as well as the elementary vocabulary of ballet are all explained. Jumps, pirouettes and dance sequences are pictured through impressive, even spectacular, moving flaps.
