The Yellow-Lighted Bookshop

A book of retellings of classic ballet stories. From ‘Swan Lake’ to ‘The Firebird,’ and ‘The Nutcracker’ to ‘Coppélia’, Vivian French breathes new life into seven ballet favourites in her timeless, gloriously-immersive retellings. Her words are perfectly complemented by Lauren O’Hara’s characterful illustrations, which strike the perfect balance between classic and contemporary, and the result is a treasury which shimmers with the magic of the ballet.
