Noel Streatfeild Quote
Here is something I want you to remember: when a dreadful thing happens to a person as it has happened to you, there are 2 ways to take it. You can let it make you cross and bitter or you can accept it, and because you know what it is like to be hurt very badly, let it make you a nicer person.

About Noel Streatfeild
Mary Noel Streatfeild OBE (24 December 1895 – 11 September 1986) was an English author, best known for children's books including the "Shoes" books, which were not a series (though some books made references to others). Random House, the U.S. publisher of the 1936 novel Ballet Shoes (1936), published some of Streatfeild's subsequent children's books using the word "Shoes" in their titles, to capitalize on the popularity of Ballet Shoes; thus Circus Shoes (originally called The Circus Is Coming), Party Shoes (originally called Party Frock), Skating Shoes (originally called White Boots) and many more. She won the third annual Carnegie Medal for The Circus Is Coming. She was a member of the historic Streatfeild family.
Several of her novels have been adapted for film or television.
