Theatre Shoes

by Noel Streatfeild

Every family has its secrets—but nothing could have prepared the three young Forbes children, straight from their quiet country vicarage, for the revelation that their grandmother is a celebrated stage actress.

Sent to live with her in wartime London, they find themselves swept into a world of drama, dust, and dazzling lights. And it turns out, joining the family means more than just settling in—it means stepping onto the stage themselves!
