Betsy and Tacy Go Downtown

Ever since their first publication in the 1940s, Maud Hart Lovelace's Betsy-Tacy books -- about the adventures of three little girls growing up together in Deep Valley, Minnesota, at the turn of the century -- have been loved by each generation of young readers. To celebrate the 60th anniversary of Betsy-Tacy in the year 2000, HarperTrophy will reissue the entire series, beginning with the first four titles. These irresistible new paperback editions feature: forewords by best-selling authors and Betsy-Tacy fans Ann M. Martin, Judy Blume, and Johanna Hurwitz; beautiful new covers in a special die-cut, collectible format; and an all-new biographical section about the author, filled with fascinating historical information and photographs.
