This was Carnegie Medal-winner Noel Streatfeild’s first ever children’s book. With their guardian Great Uncle Matthew away from home, adopted sisters Posy, Pauline and Petrova Fossil must discover and develop their own unique talents – dancing, acting and aeroplane flying – to keep themselves and their much-loved Garnie afloat.
