Theater Shoes Audiobook

" This was very enjoyable, with an interesting spin from having a boy involved. Not quite as happy as the others, but it all worked out well. "

" This is the second book of the shoes book. I enjoyed Ballet Shoes, and I enjoyed Theater Shoes. I want to read Dancing Shoes now when I can find a copy of it. These are cute stories about talented girls. I first wanted to read them when the bookstore owner in You've Got Mail recommended them to one of her customers, and now I am 2/3 there. "

" Such fun! I loved the 3 kids in this story, and the letters from the 3 Fossil sisters. :) "

" Honestly, I liked Ballet Shoes a lot more. I found myself reading this book to be done with it, which is never a feeling/ thought I enjoy while reading. I also have no intention of reading the third book. Which is a shame, because I was excited when I saw that there was a second book. Mostly I felt that the writing was not very engaging and the plot was slow and not filled out enough with a very predictable ending. "

" Was okay---kinda of long winded and draggy. She writes a long list of "shoe" books, I am not sure if I will read another. "

" I love these books depicting the lives of children (usually siblings/cousins) at the Academy. Fascinating...the lives of these children...dancing, acting, singing, auditions, radio broadcasting, theatre shows. "

" Utterly charming, and a wonderful contemporary look at life during WWII. So disappointed I didn't find these when I was a kid, but better late than never. "

" I read this later in life than my beloved Ballet Shoes and so it didn't have the same magic for me, but still loved reading about the behind the scenes life. "

" I loved catching a glimpse of my ballet girls all grown up. Since I enjoy Theater it might even be my favorite over Ballet. I can't decide. "

" Yet another great book by Noel Streatfield. This is the only one of her books that I've read that has a boy as one of the leading characters. I just really love her books so definitely read them. "

" It wasn't nearly as good as Ballet Shoes or Dancing Shoes. Still, worth reading. "

" The worst of the three shoe books I have read but still quite a nice book for younger readers. I especially liked the note about Petrova, Pauline, and Posy and the part they play in this installment. Better make sure to read Ballet Shoes before you read Theater Shoes or you might be a little lost. "

" This is one of Noel Streatfield's that is a bit more than a young reader. I love how she tells her stories and builds her characters. I love the setting in post WWII London. If you saw the movie Ballet Shoes you get a little of the flavor, but this book is better. "

" Recommended to girls 7-13 that are into dance, theater, ballet, etc. Charming and classic. "

" I love the detail in Streatfeild's books! The ending was quite anti-climactic, though. It just ended with a good summary of where everyone ends up. But otherwise, it was a really good book. I think I'll have H read it next. "

" An okay easy read - I can see the appeal for children "

" I still like ballet shoes a whole lot better. "

" Pleasant story. Armchair way to go to Performing Arts School. "

" Definitely not as good as Ballet Shoes! The bits with the bratty cousin went on too long. "

" This is the book with the semi-continuation of the Fossil sisters. "

" Love it read multiple times. "

" The first 5 chapters were so nearly identical to Ballet Shoes that I decided to skip this one. "

" Pretty good, I like Ballet shoes better. Check out the rest of the series: Ballet shoes and Dancing shoes. "

" very derivative of Ballet Shoes, which we read first. But good. "

" The first 5 chapters were so nearly identical to Ballet Shoes that I decided to skip this one. "

" I adore Noel Streatfeild book's for children. I used to feel like she was writing them just for me! But this one is only so-so. Or else I'm too old for the books. ; ) "

" This is an adorable children's book, set in London in 1942-43. Definitely a book I hope to some day share with a niece or daughter! "

" I loved catching a glimpse of my ballet girls all grown up. Since I enjoy Theater it might even be my favorite over Ballet. I can't decide. "

" I love to be in plays so I thought I would like this book better than Noel Streatfeild's Dancing Shoes. I think they're about the same, but they're both really good books. I liked reading about how Sorrel, Mark and Holly got different parts in different plays. "

" I liked the focus on family closeness, and helping your family members. This was a lot of fun to read, especially since I had just read Ballet Shoes, and the two books are kind of connected. "

" This is a fun novel about children during World War II in London growing up, learning about the world, and being part of theatrical family. My mom read it when she was growing up and recommended it to me. "

" Yet another great book by Noel Streatfield. This is the only one of her books that I've read that has a boy as one of the leading characters. I just really love her books so definitely read them. "
