Read the Crafterina Storybook!
Storybook + Craftbook + Dance Lesson = Crafterina, the book!
​​The Crafterina children's book tells the story of a little dancer who makes crafts to help her go on dancing adventures. By using her imagination and her hands, she is able to make her dancing dreams come to life. Each adventure has a corresponding craft that encourages a child to explore dancing in a creative and artistic way.
To reflect the diversity of the dance world, we offer 5 additional versions of the Crafterina Book for a customized reading experience. The My Very Own Crafterina Collection includes Dark Complexion, Olive Complexion, Golden Complexion, Blonde, and Brunette styles.
