Review: Arrived on time - Wonderful story arrived on time and in excellent condition
Review: Ballet Shoes - I originally read this story when I was around eight and it's one of those childhood books that I have been meaning to get hold of again and add to my library and I am so glad that I did. They recently did a television adaption of the book which although brilliant just doesn't compare to the book. A timeless story that I have once again really enjoyed reading. The story is about the three Fossil sisters Pauline, Petrova and Posy and how they became to be sisters as they were adopted by their Great Uncle Matthew on his travels otherwise know as GUM. The name Fossil is one they picked themselves and they vow to get into the history books as the name is their very own and no one can say it's because of their ancestors. A really really charming and lovely book that took me back to reading under the duvet with my torch when I was meant to be asleep!

*by G***L on 2 April 2015*

I recently read this to my twin ten year old daughters as the book was given to me as a child by my great aunt in the 1970's and I regret to say, I never read it. We all loved it. The language used, currency and education received by the 3 sisters needed some explanation to my daughters but they hung on every description of this bygone era. It seemed a less complicated time where children were closer to nature, camping and picnics were so much more fun and delicious and the moods and emotions of the 3 very unique sisters, still easy to relate to. We learned about Shakespeare plays and are now reading a children's version of A Mid Summer Night's Dream. My girls enjoyed the movie but the book far more so.
