Ballet Shoes by Noel Streatfeild (1936)
Noel Streatfeild’s Ballet Shoes is the classic story of the three fearless Fossil sisters, Pauline, Petrova, and Posy, who set out to follow their dreams – against the odds. Found and adopted as babies by Matthew Brown (Great Uncle Matthew), money runs out as they grow up, though the trio never loses faith. Determined to make ends meet on their own, the resilient sisters – each with different talents – decide to take to the stage. This is an unforgettable tale of triumph over adversity with plenty of girl power to boot.
