Lottie the Little Wonder

Katherine Woodfine retells Lottie's true story with a delightful narrative. The reader is given a little background to Lottie's early life in the 1870s. It was when she was a little girl that lawn tennis became a new craze and their family had a court set up in the gardens. Was this a sport for girls though? Her Mother gave her some great advice: “Girls can’t play tennis as well as boys? What a load of nonsense!…You can do anything you want if you set your mind to it.” Go Mrs Dod!!
