Bobo Benson, kitchen-maid at Belmont Ballet School, was overjoyed when an unknown wellwisher offered to pay her fees to become a pupil at the school. Bobo was determined to work hard and become a great dancer, despite the sneers of her snobbish fellow-pupils.

Bobo is relieved to find out she had appendicitis and after operation she would be able to resume her dancing lessons.

In a sequel, Bobo still at the school and made friends with a mystery girl Elena. Elena was hidden in the guestroom of the Ballet School, and Madame Belmont tried to deny to Bobo that she was there. By a stroke of luck, Bobo got in touch with Elena, feeling alone no longer, Bobo looked forward eagerly to her next meeting with Elena – little dreaming that Madame Belmont had discovered their secret friendship and had forbidden Elena to speak to Bobo.
