Product Description
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.


From the Trade Paperback edition.

2 out of 5 stars Should call this book "Rachel Hates to Dance"   September 16, 2009

When I was 12 I LOVED dancing so I got this book to inspire me. I never finished it then and now as I'm reading it to my 9 y.o. daughter I see why. It is mostly about Rachel hating dancing and the best dancers either being a horrid brat or a girl who just doesn't care. I think this book has turned my daughter more off to dancing than anything. I also find myself just hating Aunt Cora and wincing at everything she says. I only give this 2 stars because it is a compelling read. It is however NOT an inspiration to dance!!

The books are fun for young girls to read. I tough they were a little high for the size of the book.

I never wanted to 'get into' dancing or acting as a child, but this book makes the
world of a child theatrical performer (70 years ago) come alive. I read this so many times. It was just so entertaining. Great book!

"Ballet Shoes" is probably the most popular book in the "Shoes" series, but "Dancing Shoes" is also very good. It tells the story of two girls, Hilary and Rachel, who are training to become dancers on the stage. It is similar to "Ballet Shoes," but for anyone who enjoyed any of the other of the "Shoes" books it is worth reading.
