Ooh, I don't know. I haven't heard of it, which makes me think not, but I will ask those who will know on another list. Clare ----- Original Message ----- From: "Elaine Harris (Rivendell)" <elaineharris@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Might take you up on the Rosemary weir and the other Streatfield Gemma booksat some time, Clare; thank you. Did Noel S write "A Wheel on the School"? About encouraging storks; have always wanted to read it.

I've read them and am amazed that I had forgotten, or couldn't bring to mind when you wanted it, the fact that shechanged the girl's name from Nanda to Clara. I particularly liked the Sugar House, though the name is a bit icky. Elaine, there are three earlier Gemmabooks if you can stand Lydia for that long, I felt she often needed a goodsmack. I have Far to Go in my huge scanning mountain. The Painted Garden isnot one I remember with particular affection, but in general I don't do so well with her showbiz children. Having said that, I've just scanned, and will soon have corrected as best I can without actually reading it, the Summer of the Silent Hands by Rosemary Weir, which is about a famous child pianist, and which I think I'm going to love. I'll send it to anyone who wants it, though I suspect this won't be all the list. Though there is always the delete key. Same with the other Gemma books which Voldi did for me. Clare
