Three sisters step boldly onto the stage
Fair Condition – heavy cover and spine wear with creased edges.
Pauline, Petrova and Posy Fossil are adopted by the eccentric explorer Great-Uncle Matthew and raised together in a lively London household. When money becomes scarce, the sisters enrol at the Children’s Academy of Dancing and Stage Training, where their very different talents begin to emerge. Pauline is drawn to acting, Posy lives for ballet and practical Petrova would much rather work with cars and aeroplanes. The girls vow to make the Fossil name famous, but auditions, rehearsals, schoolwork and family responsibilities teach them that ambition requires discipline as well as courage. Noel Streatfeild’s beloved children’s classic offers a warm, realistic look at theatrical life while celebrating sisterhood and individual purpose. Charming and encouraging, Ballet Shoes reminds readers that success does not mean following the same path as everyone else.
