Halloween brings excitement and thrills for Angelina and her little sister Polly, who gives her an unexpected scare.

Angelina loves to dance and wants to become a ballerina more than anything else in the world.

Angelina's annoyance at having to take her little cousin Henry to the fair turns into friendship after a day filled with adventures and surprises.

Angelina the mouse loves dancing with her friends at Miss Lilly's Ballet School; zooming up and down on roller coasters; being in the comforting arms of her mother; and hearing her father play the fiddle.

"It's a dream come true! When Angelina Ballerina wins the Mouseland Herald's 'Big Dreams Do Come True' competition and a place in the Metroquefort Ballet Junior Dance Company, she must make a big decision: Will she leap at the opportunity to become a prima ballerina or shine on at Camembert Academy with the support of her friends and family? Join Angelina as she discovers what matters most to any young mouseling." -- Back cover.
