After leaving the children in the care of his niece Sylvia in London, he returns to exploring, promising to come back in five years time. At first, the girls lead privileged and sheltered lives in the comfort of wealth. But after five years go by and Gum fails to return, Sylvias money starts to run out. Things begin to look bleak for Sylvia and the Fossil girls until they hit on an inspired idea: Pauline, Petrova and Posy will take to the stage. But its not long before the Fossils learn that theres more to being a star than they thought. GERVIS, Ruth (illustrator).
