Pauli ne longs to be an actress. Petrova is happiest playing with cars and engine s. And if she could . . . Posy would dance all day! But when their benefact or Great-Uncle Matthew disappears, the Fossil girls share a future of a daz zling life on stage, where their dreams and fears will soon come true . . . Noel Streatfeild once said that Ballet Shoes was 'really a fairy story wit h its feet half-way on the ground' - a magical description for a magical bo ok.
