More About the Author
Product Description
Book Description
Would she ever find somewhere she truly belonged?
Product Description
When Polly Anna's mother died when she was just three years old, it seemed the workhouse was the only place for her to go. But with the help of Jonty - a young misfit who soon became her best friend - she managed to escape, running away with the fairground folk. She became a horserider and acrobat, travelling all around the country. Her friends became the circus people, and her home the caravans and travellers' tents.
Meanwhile, in a great house in Yorkshire, old Mrs Winthrop has never given up hope of finding her daughter Madeleine, who eloped with a handsome gypsy and was never seen again. When her young neighbour sets out to find Madeleine, he discovers the colourful world of the fairs. And there, in the midst of it all, Polly Anna - once the waif from the workhouse, now a fully-fledged gypsy girl.
Previously published as The Romany Girl.

We have been buying so many books from you that my wife hasn't got round to reading this one yet!! However, she loves Val Wood's books so I am sure this one will be just as good as the others and have rated it accordingly

It does say "Previously published as The Romany Girl" on the website and back of the book. This product doesn't deserve 1-stars for that, lots of things get a name change in life,... Read more
