But all is not as it seems. When Vicky grows up and her first children's book is published to great acclaim, it is her family who are the least surprised. For the Vicky of this story if the much-loved Noel Streatfeild, and her first book was the famous Ballet Shoes. This is the story of her childhood, told in her own words. An autobiographical novel written by one of the twentieth century's best-loved children's authors.
