Brief description:
A longtime resident of Washington State, Betty MacDonald (1908-58) authored four humorous, autobiographical bestsellers and several children's books, including the popular Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle books.
Review Quotes: "Each of these stories has obviously been told over and over to delighted children, who must throng around their author as the youngsters in the book do around Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle herself."-- "The Chicago Tribune"The incomparable Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle loves children good or bad and never scolds but has positive cures for Answer-Backers, Never-Want-to-Go-to-Bedders, and other boys and girls with strange habits. ?[Now] in paperback . . . for a new generation of children to enjoy.' "-- San Francisco Examiner Chronicle."
