Aunt Cora is determined to turn two orphans, perky Hilary and sullen Rachel, into members of her dance troupe. But Rachel wants to keep Hilary from being one of Wintle s Little Wonders is it selfishness or something else? Misunderstandings and a spoiled cousin come together for a tale full of high drama. Originally published in 1957."

Not quite on the level of Ballet Shoes, but Rachel and Hilary are still fun characters to follow. #childrenslit

I‘m slowly working my way through the Shoe books. This was another delightful story of two young girls, newly orphaned, who are taken in by their aunt who runs a dancing school and troupe called the Little Wonders. Very cute!
