Description

**”Some characters become your friends for life. That’s how it was for me with Betsy-Tacy.”—Judy Blume** **With a Foreword by Anna Quindlen** The final two books in Maud Hart Lovelace’s beloved Betsy-Tacy series: *Betsy and the Great World* and *Betsy’s Wedding* , in one volume featuring the original cover illustration from *Betsy and the Great World* , along with a foreword by *New York Times* bestselling author Anna Quindlen. **“There 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 “Slipping into a Betsy book is like slipping into a favorite pair of well-worn slippers: It’s always a pleasure to live in Betsy’s world for a little while, to experience her simple joys, but also her (thankfully short-lived) sorrows.” —Meg Cabot “I 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 Lippman**
