Random House, the U.S. publisher of the 1936 "Ballet Shoes" (1936), published some of Streatfeild's subsequent children's books using the word "Shoes" in their titles, to capitalize on the popularity of Ballet Shoes; thus "Circus Shoes", "Party Shoes" (in Britain, "Party Frock"). She won the third annual Carnegie Medal for "The Circus Is Coming", also published as "Circus Shoes". She was a member of the historic Streatfeild family.
