  School was out, and it was a lovely summer day in Chipping Cheddar. Angelina and her best friend, Alice, were sitting together under the old apple tree in Angelina’s garden, thinking about all the things they could do now that summer had arrived.

  “Let’s make up a new dance and invite everyone to come and watch,” Angelina said, imagining lots of exciting dance moves. Angelina loved to dance more than anything, and she was always thinking of ways to create another special performance.

  “When you dance, you can be anything you want,” she explained to Alice. “I’ve decided to be a princess. What about you?”
