The Slave Dancer by Paula Fox
I borrowed The Slave Dancer from our libraries when we had our immigrant theme a few months back but I never got around to reading it. Glad to see a new Nadia Shireen title. I won a copy of her Good Little Wolf a year ago and enjoyed it immensely.
ReplyDeleteHey Presto reminds me a little bit of Elephant & Piggie. The first one, Little Tug, looks very cute. Thanks. I remember liking The Slave Dancer-wonder if it will hold up?
