I‘m so enjoying all the old dance books that are being posted today for this tag!

batsy Ohhh 💜 I'm so sad that I never read these! 5y
LeahBergen @ScientistSam I wish that I had found these as a kid (when I was in my obsessive reading about ballet and boarding school phase)! 5y
LeahBergen @TrishB 😘😘 5y
LeahBergen @batsy I wish I‘d found them when I was little, too! 5y

How much trouble do we think I‘m in? These are this weekend‘s purchases (so far) #shelfie

batsy Antonia Forest! And I adore the Trebizon series 💕 6y
LeahBergen Oh my! 😍😍 6y
LeahBergen @batsy I haven‘t read any of the Trebizon series. I‘ll have to look out for them. 6y
Verity @LeahBergen @batsy the Trebizon books were the closest of the boarding school books to my own school experience - written from 78-94 but internal time basically moved on faster than the 4/5 years the books cover. 6y
batsy @LeahBergen Oh, they're wonderful. I hope you find copies. I only have several and am always on the lookout to complete the series 💕 6y

One book closer to completing my Sadler's Wells collection by Lorna Hill. Three to go! This one's a first edition hardcover, and so lovely. #ballet

#feistyfeb I work as a dance teacher, so any book set in a dance studio (such as Lorna Hill's Sadler's Wells series) is a #workplacesetting for me. #balletbooks

RealLifeReading I loved this series as a kid! But I think we only had a couple of them. 7y
KerriNTurner @RealLifeReading I only had Veronica at the Wells as a kid, but in recent years decided to start collecting them all. I have four to go! 7y
Verity I love these so much. Not quite as much as Drina, but nearly up there. Your paperbacks are a generation ahead of mine - I have the blue bordered ones. (edited) 7y

KerriNTurner @Verity I'm thinking I might start collecting the Drina series when I've completed my Lorna Hill set. Have only read the first one, so would be nice to get into them! 7y
Verity @KerriNTurner I have so much love for Drina. I got ridiculously excited when I managed to get the books to get my set to match! 7y
KerriNTurner @Verity that's awesome, I'd be excited too! 7y

I may have treated myself to a the last two Sadler's Wells books in hardback. I believe the prices means they count as collectable. Gulp. Possibly the most expensive books I've ever bought! Neither of these is in the database so I've tagged the first in the series!
