Based on the New York City Ballet production choreographed by Peter Martins, after Marius Petipa and George Balanchine. This picture book of the familiar "Sleeping Beauty" fairy tale adds a few details unique to the ballet, such as the famous fairy-tale characters that attend Aurora's wedding. Docampo's illustrations take center stage as her whimsically elongated figures capture the unearthly grace of ballet dancers.
