EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from January 1948, we are transported back to a time when young Shirley Needham, a ten-year-old girl with an extraordinary background, took on the role of librarian at the hostel for children of actors in Ealine. With her mother being a renowned pantomime star, it seems that talent runs deep within their family. Surrounded by stacks of books and eager faces, Shirley exudes confidence beyond her years as she assumes her new responsibility. This image beautifully captures the essence of childhood education and the power of literature to inspire young minds. The diverse group gathered around Shirley showcases both boys and girls engrossed in reading. It is heartwarming to witness how books have brought these children together, fostering a sense of camaraderie among them.
