Description

Dogs don't do ballet' tells a story of a little girls who regularly attends her ballet dance classes. The artwork, not only on the cover but throughout the book, consists of extremely well observed, beautifully hand-drawn illustrations in a vintage style. I love this book as it shows children about stereotypes that just because you may not see many people doing something, doesn't mean you can't. Un beau récit original et merveilleux qui met en vedette un animal voulant se prendre pour une danseuse de ballet. This is an excellent story to explain to children about stereotypes and the misconceptions people come up with for example girls dance and boys play football.

He doesn't do dog stuff like weeing on lampposts or scratching his fleas, or drinking out of the toilet. Explore concepts of joyful movement, acceptance and help children explore big ideas such as appearance-based bullying and judgement with the help of Biff, an adorable puppy who will stop at nothing to become a ballet dancer. Disheartened the little girl makes her way to her dance classes but she always feels as if she is being watch.This book challenges assumptions and defies gender stereotypes, which can limit one’s possibilities and talents. It is a sophisticated story with sophisticated language including some French ballet terms which my class found inexplicably, but amusingly, funny when I read the story aloud! It also gave us a chance to talk about how everyone should be given a chance to try something they may not usually do. Biff just isn’t interested in fetching a stick because he is too busy staring longingly at her tutu. I am using it as part of the 'No Outsiders: Everyone Included, Everyone Welcome' project that our school is taking part in.

This fun story is sure to be enjoyed by young readers aged 4+ and could be a good starting point to explore gender stereotypes with slightly older children also.Like most stories aimed at young children this story emphasises the importance of importance of living honorably. This book subtly introduces gender stereotypes and would be a really good opener for a lesson about stereotypes and for children to discuss why dogs can’t do ballet, or why woman can’t be firefighters or why men can’t be nurses etc etc. O tom, že když někdo tvrdí, že něco nejde, nebo se to nedělá jen proto, že to ještě nikdo nezkusil, neznamená to, že to taky nemáme zkoušet.

I like the way it is a dog who is being told can't do things -it makes his sadness even more heart breaking and is a different approach to gender stereotypes.He doesn’t do dog stuff like weeing on lampposts or scratching his fleas, or drinking out of the toilet.
