I enjoyed the parts about Mildred the orphaned violin prodigy, but then there's a whole other plot about a contest between six different schools crammed in as well, which I found a bit boring and long winded.

"If there's one slack, slow business in this wide world," said Bess Harrison, stretching her arms in the exigencies of a combined sigh and prodigious yawn, "it's coming back to school after the Easter holidays. Tame isn't the word for it! It's absolute milk and water. September start is some sport, because one's generally in a fresh form, and there are always changes; and even January is fairly lively; but now! Why, there's scarcely even a new girl to make a small excitement, and altogether it's about as stale as beginning again after half-term week-end." No library descriptions found.
