Little Orphan Annie. Anne Of Green Gables. Madeline. Why are there so many stories about plucky little orphan girls with red hair? Is the fiery colour of their heads supposed to represent the fire of their personality? Or is it just because red hair tends to stand out, thus clearly marking anyone with it as a protagonist?
Regardless, there’s a new member of the Scarlet-Haired Sorority in town. Meet Felicie Milliner, a young French girl confined to a stuffy orphanage in 19th-century France. Felicie, however, has big ambitions to become a prima ballerina in the Paris Opera House.
