Contents

  • When Jane Foster was twelve, her parents decided that although they wanted her to become a veterinary surgeon when she grew up, it might be good for her to have lessons in dancing. Then Mariella, Jane's cousin arrived to spend a holiday at Jane's lovely country home. Mariella, daughter of a prima ballerina, was expected to follow her mother's footsteps, but the horses and dogs and outdoor life that Jane was made to live attracted her far more than the footlights at Covent Garden.
  • The two girls decided on a daring plan - Jane would masquerade as Mariella at an audition for the Sadler's Wells Ballet School. Jane was a born dancer.
