Gemma the Star Résumé

Gemma the Star Noel Streatfeild

It looks as though success might be going to Gemma's head. She's played the lead in the school pageant, and was the organiser of the successful group, Gemma & Sisters. Now she's off to drama school. What's going to happen next? Gemma is really looking forward to going to drama school. For the first time since she arrived to live with her cousins she can be herself -- Gemma Bow, the child film-star. And before she's had a chance even to settle in there comes the chance of the lead in the local pantomime! Gemma is delighted -- until her mother phones from America, forbidding her to take it. Gemma is furious, and sulks for weeks. Then by chance she meets Charles Rooke, who offers her the lead in his new TV series. Things suddenly start to look up again -- and even more so when a record producer is very interested in Gemma & Sisters, the singing and dancing act. Life's all roses for Gemma -- or is it?

Gemma the Star Avis

Noel Streatfeild's position in the children's book world is unique. She is endlessly inventive, full of verve and a real understanding of childhood. Her stories are rich in documentary interest and entertainment, escapism of a most satisfying sort. 'TLS
