Did you know that one of the Henleaze Junior School teachers became the J K Rowling of her day?

When Mrs Elaine Horseman left HJS she took up another career and became a British author of three children's books, which centre on five children in an old victorian house and their experiences with a book of magic spells.
The three books are:
Hubble's Bubble. 1964
The Hubbles' Treasure Hunt.1965
The Hubbles and the Robot. 1968
This is a quote from on Amazon from Carole J. Walker on January 7, 2015:
Elaine Horseman was the J.K. Rowling of her day. Witchcraft, candlesticks, 3 English children, a mouse... I read this as a child in the 1960's and never forgot it. The name Alaric charmed me so I looked it up. he was a King of the Visigoths, ok.
Do you have any memories of her books, her or her family?
