Bookroo's summary

Ivy and Bean finally get their long-awaited ballet lessons, only to discover it's not the action-packed adventure they imagined. Faced with an ocean-themed recital, the duo must concoct a clever plan to avoid performing while keeping their promise to their parents. Will they find a way to escape gracefully, or will they have to dance to a different tune? Dive into their hilarious antics and see if they can outsmart the situation without causing a splash.

From the publisher

Finally! After begging their parents for ballet lessons, Ivy and Bean finally get what they want…well, not exactly. Much to their surprise, it turns out ballet lessons do not include karate chops and roundhouse kicks to the villain’s heart. The girls have no interest in learning how to dance gracefully, but they promised their parents they would finish the entire ballet course! When it comes time for Ivy and Bean to participate in the ocean-themed class recital, the girls must figure out a way to get out of it without breaking their promises. Includes bonus material! - Sneak peek chapter from the next book in the Ivy + Bean series Ivy and Bean What’s the Big Idea? by Annie Barrows, illustrated by Sophie Blackall
