OH NO !!! I spent so many years receiving literally hundreds of birthday cards, stationery, etc. as gifts with those huge, fat, pink Disney dancing hippos in tutus.....<P><BR>AND NOW...I am probably going to start receiving pink mouse- es en pointe - ACK!!<P>(yes, I know the plural of mouse is mice - so shoot me)

No.. oh no.. not the commercialism of a childhood favourite like Angelina Ballerina..<BR>*runs off in tears* Does EVERYTHING have to be made into a lipgloss and backpack?

Well I think Angelina is very sweet and you're all being horrid to her. I just hope she's not reading this as she would be very upset I'm sure.<P>Anyway, I hope she proves you all wrong in her forthcoming audition for Ballett Frankfurt.

Move over Guiellem

so , somebody else thought she dances better than a certain ballerina !! Angelina does seem to have high extensions??maybe just her build??

It's certainly nice to see a ballerina who doesn't have the classic "Balanchine" body. . .or is even a member of the classic Balanchine species.

Of mice and women
By Rebecca Seal for The Observer


When I was about five, I wanted, more than anything else in the world, to be Angelina Ballerina. For the uninitiated, Angelina is a mouse and lives in a storybook, but that was certainly irrelevant at the time. Angelina had a tutu and ballet shoes and was wonderful.

It was, therefore, with a slightly absurd level of excitement that I approached an original illustration from the series of Angelina books by Helen Craig.

I may be an adult but i adore Angelina Ballerina! I love watching the TV programmes,and yes i think she has high extensions but who cares she is a joy to watch-if not a little vocal at times! Have a heap of DVD's etc and
i have just started collecting the figurines of Angelina and her friends,they are so cute.One thing to all those manufactures of childs Angelina t-shirts etc,there are some adults who would like them as well so do some adult sizes.
