Review
The other Tallulah books are about ballet. This time Tallulah is going to dance camp and she has to take a tap dancing class. At first Tallulah does not like tap dancing because the teacher keeps correcting her and she feels she is the worst student in the class. She meets a girl named Kacie who is good at tap dancing but feels she is the worst student in ballet class. The girls eventually become friends and decide they will try their best learning both styles of dance. The illustrations in watercolor and watercolor mixed with gouache complement the story very well.
Overall Book Score: very good
