Work Description

Thursday's Children chronicles the rise of aspiring ballet dancer Doone Penny, whose story is as unorthodox as it is inspirational. Encompassing a world where dance, fame and family are as intricately intertwined as the steps of Leda and the Swan, Rumer Godden's book brings to life the passion of a child in his craft, and the shining possibilities of his future.
