I ordered mine yesterday and got an e-mail back saying "posted". I can't wait. I have been longing for a copy for years ever since reading the first three pages at the home of a more affluent children's book collector than me.

I've only ever seen one copy advertised, and that was at over £500... I once read a description of it as 'an adult version of Ballet Shoes' and have been itching to get hold of a copy ever since. I read a couple of short extracts on a website somewhere which were close to Ballet Shoes, and yet so different in tone. Hurrah for reprints!

Oh dear, I could wish you hadn't told me that, as so have I just ordered it, and I can't afford it.... oh well!
