Customer Review:
 I tried to read all of Noel Streatfeild's books when I was in school. This was my favorite followed by Dancing Shoes. I liked them both better than Ballet Shoes which seems to be her most famous. I could relate totally to Margaret's adventurous spirit. I loved the descriptions of fine food and... more info

Customer Review:
 This was my favorite book growing up. I read it over and over until the pages fell out. The characters are so realistic and their aunt was so eccentric. I often wished I could be there with them exploring Ireland and having adventures. It is also a great book for kids who often "judge a book by it's... more info

Customer Review:
 This and the other "shoe" books were recomended to me as great reading for girls who have their dreams of being something! Since this book is out of print you should search for it in Amazon.co.uk! I'm excited to have just discovered it and look forward to reading farther in this inspiring series.

Customer Review:
 Despite the fact that I love the Shoes books, I found this one completely one-dimensional and dull. The author is at her best, I think, when she is creating characters who excel at theater or ballet. Though she did an adequate job describing the Big Top, that the two protagonists run away from home... more info

 The story of a rising young star and her troubles with the past. A great book, yet not the best of Streatfeild. A good read for those who can get there hands on it.

Customer Review:
 Growing up, I was positively addicted to Noel Streatfield's well-known "Shoes" series, thanks to its ability to speak to the interests and dreams of a child. "When the Sirens Wailed" provides a perspective of WWII uniquely suited to a child, by telling it from the point of view of the English... more info
