Louisa In The Wings

A Russian ballet company comes to town with a production of COPPELIA and Louisa just has to see it. But first she has to scrape the ticket money together through lots of get-rich-schemes. By the time she's got enough disaster strikes - the show's sold out! But with a little help from her guardian-angel neighbour, Mrs Posnansky, Weezer finds herself not only at the ballet, but in the wings as well and of course, in heaven too!

Reviews

Kit Wright's poetry for children has an exuberance, a vitality, and a technical virtuosity that works equally well on the page or when read aloud.

—— Twentieth Century Children's Writers

One of the most able poets for children around is Kit Wright.

—— Independent

Enchanting... will cause rapturous giggles as well as encouraging a sense of word play and imagery that no home should be without.

—— Daily Telegraph

He's funny, clever, nimble and moving. Above all, his poetic generosity refuses to consider serious subjects as out of bounds just because he's writing for a young audience.

—— Evening Standard
