Here is Swan Lake as Told by Margot Fonteyn and Illustrated by Trina Schart Hyman.
From the book’s dust jacket:
The lights dim, the house grows still, and the curtains part to reveal the haunting beauty of Swan Lake. Once again, ballerina Margot Fonteyn enchants audiences – this time to tell the tale of the doomed lovers as only she can.
The age-old legend in which a lovely princess, turned into a swan by an evil enchanter, is rescued by a handsome young prince has become one of the world’s best-loved ballets. And the story takes on yet another form as the graceful figures in Trina Schart Hyman’s illustration float magically across the pages.
Swan Lake as told by Margot Fonteyn and illustrated by Trina Schart Hyman will be treasured as dearly by those who already love the ballet as by those who have yet to fall under its spell.
