What is Angelina and Alice about?

Angelina loves turning cartwheels, somersaults and handstands with her new friend Alice. Alice is brilliant at gymnastics, but Angelina struggles to balance on her hands. When the older children laugh, Alice joins in, leaving Angelina feeling hurt and alone. Can the two friends put their quarrel aside? As they discover, gymnastics is much more fun when they encourage one another. Angelina and Alice learn that teamwork, kindness and friendship matter more than being perfect.
