The children on the top floor

By Noel Streatfeild

Subjects: CHildren tv

Description: Four foundlings are left on the doorstep of a famous TV personality on Christmas day. The 'quads' are put into advertising and are raised by the house staff. This story is a little like Ballet Shoes repackaged for the television era, with many of Streatfield's trusted tropes (a nanny, an egotistical child, absent parents), but it is still engaging and worth reading. .
