What fun! I've read two Noel Streatfeild books, Traveling Shoes and one other (not sure which). I really liked Traveling Shoes.

I just checked my public library system and they don't have Skating Shoes; they only have multiple iterations of Ballet Shoes, Dancing Shoes, and Theatre Shoes. They have two of those on audio CD, which should be fun for the work commute -- and I'm sure I can pick up Skating Shoes somewhere.

Thanks!
