Elinor M Brent-Dyer Knihy
Táto autorka je predovšetkým známa svojou rozsiahlu sériou o internátnej škole, ktorá predstavuje najdlhšiu sériu dievčenských školských príbehov v histórii. Jej štýl sa vyznačuje živým vykreslením prostredia a dôrazom na kamarátstvo a osobný rozvoj postáv. Diela sú cenené pre svoj optimistický tón a schopnosť vtiahnuť čitateľov do sveta svojich hrdiniek. Autorka často čerpala inšpiráciu z vlastných skúseností a ciest, čo jej príbehom dodáva autenticitu a osobité čaro.
It seems as though Theodora Grantley is going to be one of the Chalet School's more troublesome new pupils. Her own mother writes to Rosalie Dene to warn her that Theodora has been expelled from three schools already "for bad behaviour and insubordination". Then Miss Carthew, the much-beloved 'Carty' from Tirol days, writes to Joey Maynard to admit that it was she who recommended the Chalet School to Myra Grantley for her wayward daughter.
One of Elinor Brent-Dyer's most engaging school stories
When Madge Bettany decides to start a school in the Austrian Alps, little does she realize how such a small idea will so completely change her life. Now, in this classic series of books, first published in the 1920s, join the Chalet School's first pupil, Joey Bettany, as she forges strong bonds of friendship with girls from Europe and America. Independent, intelligent, resourceful, and bold--the girls of Chalet School make each new term and adventure.
