Why read it?
1 author picked Betsy-Tacy as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
They’re the fictionalized account of the author’s childhood growing up in Deep Valley, Minnesota, and my mom introduced me to these books when I was about nine or so. She’d read them growing up and I reread them constantly into my teens and then every few years as an adult whenever I needed the literary equivalent of hot chocolate and fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies. I realize these books are not in the genres I write, but inspiration doesn’t always come from obvious places.
From Dana's list on series that I’ve re-read at least a half dozen times.
