A Dancer From the Abbey

by Elsie J. Oxenham

It is quite an event for girls everywhere when a new 'Abbey Girls' title by Elsie J. Oxenham makes its welcome appearance - and A Dancer from the Abbey is sure to reward all those readers who have been patiently awaiting another book by the 'Schoolgirls’ Authoress.
It tells of the trials and tribulations of Damaris, a young dancer striving to regain her place in the world of ballet after a serious accident which temporarily interrupted her dancing.
This new story will reunite thousands of Miss Oxenham’s loyal followers with such established favourites as Joy, Jen, Rachel, Joan and a host of others.
Their lively escapades will hold readers enthralled until the final page, for Miss Oxenham has written yet another sparkling story in her inimitable style, which maintains the high standard of her previous successes.
