Virago to publish two new collections by Ballet Shoes author Noel Streatfeild
The forgotten stories, discovered among the late writer’s papers, will be published beginning in November with Christmas Story Collection
Two collections of forgotten stories by Noel Streatfeild are to be published for the first time. They were discovered among the late writer’s papers.
Streatfeild, who died in 1986, is the author of some of the best-loved classics of children’s literature, from Ballet Shoes, her tale of the adventures on the stage of the Fossil sisters, to White Boots, about rivalry on ice skates. She began writing children’s books in 1931 after working in munitions factories and canteens during the first world war and as an actor.
