Description

On the night of her parents' dancing party, Mabel listens to the music that floats up the stairs - one, two, three; one, two, three. The air is full of swirling and swooshing, as Mama, Papa and their guests dance the night away. And very soon, to everyone's surprise, Mabel is dancing too!

Reviews

"* "Davenier captures exactly --- the pressing excitement of a child listening to a glamorous adult party downstairs." The Observer"
