Party Shoes

Hi, I'm Mia and here is my review on a book that I recently read called Party Shoes:

Party Shoes was written by Noel Streatfield who wrote lots of books, including a famous book called Ballet Shoes. He is very good at describing characters and their feelings and builds atmosphere in a book.
Party Shoes is set when World War 2 is coming to a close. Selina Cole, who has come from Hong Kong, is living with her Aunt , Uncle and 6 cousins in England. Selina recieves a parcel from her godmother in america...a blue organdie party frock and matching shoes! But when will she have the oppertunity to wear them? What will they lead to? Will Selina see her family again after the war?
Party Shoes was originally illustrated by Anna Zinkeisen and published by Collins. It has now become part of the Collins Library.
I was glued to this book, it is a journey, a long wait for THE DAY...."what day?" you might ask, well you'll have to read it to find out!

Thanks for reading my review!
