About this title

Synopsis

Poor Giselle! With her innocent and trusting nature, she could not imagine the village man she loves is really Count Albrecht in disguise--and he is already promised to another. When the truth comes out, the stage is set for tragedy...The epitome of romantic ballet, with its star-crossed love, ethereal creatures from beyond the grave, and faith in the eternal power of forgiveness.

Synopsis

One of a series of ballet stories. Each is retold and illustrated, with a section at the back detailing fascinating facts about each particular ballet.
