Changes

This leads me to thinking perhaps I am being to harsh on Holly Skeet. I won't ever change my mind about gender stereotypes being reinforced in books like this, but at the end of the day it is rare for my daughter to read anything from start to finish in such a short space of time. She thinks that this a book that would be suitable for 8-13 year olds and at 13, though she felt she was at the limit of the upper age range of readers, she has already asked me about getting the other books in the series. Therefore, regardless of my reservations, I would recommend ''Holly Goes To Stage School'' to anyone who has a daughter who likes dancing or who is a reluctant reader. Perhaps it's real life I need to think about changing, not the books that reflect it!
