"Some characters become your friends for life. That's how it was for me with Betsy-Tacy."-Judy BlumeWith a Foreword by Meg CabotMaud Hart Lovelaces beloved Betsy-Tacy series continues with the third and final books set in Betsy and Tacys high school years, Betsy Was a Junior and Betsy and Joe, featuring the original cover illustration from Betsy Was a Junior along with a foreword by New York Times bestselling author Meg Cabot.Slipping into a Betsy book is like slipping into a favorite pair of well-worn slippers: Its always a pleasure to live in Betsys world for a little while, to experience her simple joys, but also her (thankfully short-lived) sorrows. -Meg CabotI re-read these books every year, marveling at how a world so quaint - Shirtwaists! Pompadours! Merry Widow hats! - can feature a heroine who is undeniably modern. -Laura LippmanThere are three authors whose body of work I have re-read more than once over my adult life: Charles Dickens, Jane Austen, and Maud Hart Lovelace. -Anna Quindlen
