Synopsis
This is the next brilliant adventure in the hugely successful series. Katie Morag has to go to ballet class. She has to wear a frilly frou-frou skirt and pink ballet pumps, instead of her favourite wellies. Katie Morag is not impressed - she has better things to do on a Saturday morning. But the Grandmothers have decided - she must go to ballet. There's nothing she can do or is there? The perfect story for feisty little girls everywhere - especially the ones who don't like ballet.

From the Back Cover
When Mrs Mackie offers to teach ballet and tap to the children on the Isle of Struary, everyone thinks it is a brilliant idea. Everyone, that is, except Katie Morag McColl! But the two grandmothers have decided - Katie Morag will go to ballet, she will wear a frilly frou-frou skirt and she will take part in the Dance Performance. Her Big Boy Cousins prefer tap lessons, of course. What is Katie Morag going to do?

About the Author
Mairi Hedderwick:
MAIRI HEDDERWICK was born in Gourock, Scotland. At seventeen she took a job as a mother's help on the Isle of Coll in the Hebrides, beginning a life-long love affair with islands and their small communities.

Her children were brought up there and now some of her grandchildren. From being Grannie Island she has now moved on to being Granma Mainland, but her heart is always on the island.

Mairi's island world is delightfully reflected in the imaginary island of Struay where Katie Morag and her family live. As well as creating children's books Mairi writes and illustrates travel books for adults. She spends a lot of time visiting schools and is always accompanied by Katie Morag's teddy that travels with her in a black bag.
