Mary by FRANCES GRAY with Gladys Spencer and Moir Leslie

'An old gypsy had told my mother she would have four children-the fourth one would be different.' How right she was.... Sue Loftus-Brigham spent her childhood agonising because she could not learn to read, write and spell as easily as other children. She was hopelessly untidy, clumsy and the butt of her classmates. Even her mother thought her mentally defective. But she became a talented and successful theatrical designer.
