| book description |

""Some characters become your friends for life. That's how it was for me with Betsy-Tacy.""--Judy Blume With a Foreword by Meg Cabot Maud Hart Lovelace's beloved Betsy-Tacy series continues with this timeless coming-of-age story containing the final books set in Betsy and Tacy's high school years, Betsy Was a Junior and Betsy and Joe. This charming historical fiction for teens features 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: 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 ""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
