Ballet Dancers Paper Dolls (Dover Paper Dolls) Paperback – October 18, 2010

The pictures are well done, but I am a little discouraged that only the dancers were perforated to punch out. The rest of the outfits need to be cut individually. If this doesn't concern you and you have a few hours, it's perfect.

When I ordered the paper dolls, I didn't read the description closely enough to catch the word "reversible" when it described the dolls themselves. If you are ordering with the idea of a child having four dolls they can play with at the same time (or if you are, like me, a collector of paper dolls, and put them in a scrapbook), you can't because they are back to back: Hispanic on one side and Asian on the other; African-American on one side and white on the other. You can only use two at the same time (unless you scan two of the dolls and print them out on cardstock; I haven't done that yet so I can't say how they would look, but I printed out a ballerina doll I found on the Internet on cardstock and it looked just fine). Overall, the dolls are very pretty and so are the costumes; there are costumes for each doll that are identical to other dolls but are different colors so that they can be dressed as if they are in the same ballet, and the costumes are very pretty.

Like a lot of other people I didn't read the full item description about the fact that you have to hand cut all the costumes out with scissor, every other paper doll book I have ever brought has always has it so you can just press the stuff out so heaps eaiser.

Paper dolls are not perforated which I am not happy about.
