{"product_id":"nutcracker-night-9781772780918","title":"Nutcracker Night","description":"Beep  Beep  go the taxis. Voof  go the velvet curtains. The Nutcracker ballet and New York City's Metropolitan Opera House come to life in this onomatopoeic representation of a little girl's experience at the ballet. From the swish of her dress and the tick-tick-tick of the conductor's baton to the twelve bongs of the clock and the pitter-patter of dancers' feet, this special evening is filled with sensory treats for the eyes and especially the ears. And did she enjoy the ballet? The answer is a big smooch on her father's cheek. Written by Mireille Messier, Nutcracker Night is a celebration of a Christmas classic that is often a child's first experience of the ballet. Award-winning illustrator Gabrielle Grimard infuses each scene with warm holiday colors and a richness that will make young readers feel they are really there. An author's note enriches the text with further information and a brief summary of the famous ballet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pajama Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781772780918\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 9.80w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/07\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHorn Book Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2019 pg. 31\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/26\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/24\/2020 pg. 1\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Mireille Messier","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36668374188188,"sku":"9781772780918","price":16.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_b4cf80fb-fb3c-49c5-aa4f-763d8c4f6cc0.jpg?v=1603917363","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/nutcracker-night-9781772780918","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
