Carrie and the Roller Boots cover

Sidney and Carrie return in this uplifting Little Gem by award-winning author Lisa Thompson as Carrie embarks on a mission to discover her special talent.

Carrie’s best friend Sidney is planning to show off his tap-dancing skills during Friday Fun Time at school and Carrie wants to join in. She plans an amazing routine where Sidney will dance and she will roller skate.

But there’s one big problem … Carrie has never roller skated before. Will the performance end in disaster or will their friendship help them to dazzle the audience?

"This delightful chapter book demonstrates that it takes time, hard work and perseverance to develop new skills, and also highlights the importance of supportive friendships. It sensitively explores Carrie’s feelings of frustration and apprehension, as well as Sidney’s concern for his friend." – BookTrust
