About this listen

London, 1876. Hetty Feather is just a tiny baby when her mother leaves her at the Foundling Hospital. The Hospital cares for abandoned children - but Hetty must live with a foster family until she is big enough to go to school.

Life in the countryside is hard, but she has 'brothers' Jem and Gideon to play with, and together they sneak off to visit the travelling circus.

Hetty is mesmerised by the show, especially Madame Adeline and her performing horses. When she is returned to the Foundling Hospital, the new life of awful uniforms and terrible food is a struggle for Hetty. But now she has the chance to find her real mother. Could she really be the wonderful Madame Adeline? Or is the truth even more surprising?

A delightful and utterly original take on a historical novel, this warm, funny and moving story, read by Jacqueline Wilson, will thrill her many fans.

I love it. Hetty and all the characters seem to come alive. The story line is very exciting! Before reading this I didn't even know what a Foundling Hospital was, now I feel as if I've lived there myself. I also recommend the rest of the series, though the first one is the best.

Best of the best!

This had always been my favourite book . I have read nearly all of the series and listed to them over and over again because every time I listen or read it the Hetty feather life just pops out at me and list like I am right there experiencing the whole thing . My favourite part is when Hetty runs away she is a cheeky girl who harps a bad temper!!! :) ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😄😄😄😄😄

Hetty feather was one of the best books I have ever read/listen to. The story line is gripping and had a bit of everything- from romance to sorrow and excitement. I have also listened to Sapphire Battersea, Emerald Star and Diamond and intend to get little stars and Hetty feathers Christmas. I feel so sorry for Hetty and how she had to stay cooped up in a reached hospital. I'm so happy she found her dear mother though. (Not going to give spoilers to who it is) I also love the way the reader reads the book and don't think she over does the expressions or talk in a goofy / annoying voice. In conclusion, this book is exceptional and I would highly recommend it. (:

A brilliant listen ! Would recommend!
