Shelve Heaven to Betsy. Begun at an unfortunate time, when a dreadful head cold, and a feeling of being out of charity with the world made the author's somewhat expository style rather irksome for me, the story won me over by degrees, gently unfolding its tale of two young girls who face the joys and sorrows of being five- year-olds together.

I reread them over and over, because they never lose their beauty. Rating details. Betsy-Tacy by Maud Hart Lovelace. At the same time, she does not gloss over the challenges of reality. Tracing the girls' lives from early childhood to the brink of adolescence, Lovelace illuminates their innocent, mischievous fun and their eye-opening adventures exploring the world around them--from the stories Betsy spins from their neighborhood bench and the sand stores they run in their backyards, to their first experiences at the library, the thrill of the theater, and the sight of their first automobile. Betsy and Tacy, both five years old, play games and explore their neighborhood with their mothers' permission but without adult supervision. It was always exciting to go into a bookstore or library sale and look to see whether or not they had the next book in the series. I would have really enjoyed them. Animal Liberation Peter Singer. An appendix with photographs and information on the author and the publishing of the Betsy-Tacy series is also included. All of the main characters and most of the minor ones are based on people that Lovelace really knew. She was the middle of three children born to Thomas and Stella Palmer Hart. While this was a perfectly fine little book, it struck me as a little blah and stilted; not nearly as brilliant and honest as Elizabeth Enright or Jeanne Birdsall. The first four books in the beloved Betsy-Tacy series, together in one volume, ready to delight a new generation of readers--and to bring a grownup generation of readers back to the engrossing stories of their youth. Therefore, even within the pages of this short book, the characters must deal with death Tacy's sister, the Baby Bee , and the disruptions caused by birth Betsy's sister Margaret. Dispatched from the UK in 3 business days When will my order arrive? Now I have to read the others, and skim my eye past the illos, which I still don't like, but at least I know why: the figures are out of proportion, like paper dolls, the faces squashed. When the Kelly family moves in, Betsy sees a moving "dray", not a moving truck, and their houses have "parlors", not living rooms or family rooms.

The high school books bring in the surrounding countryside. They are also based closely on Lovelace's personal experiences. Tilar J Mazzeo. The Betsy-Tacy books were highly autobiographical and Lovelace perfectly captures the innocence and magic of childhood. Book 6. I certainly didn't have two numbers in my age. I recommend reading at least Betsy-Tacy aloud in order to give the child a sense of the style and to familiarize them with the Deep Valley and its characters, and perhaps also Betsy-Tacy and Tib, the next book in the series.

  • The Thirteen Betsy-Tacy Books by Alice Merchant
    The Thirteen Betsy-Tacy Books by Alice Merchant Betsy-Tacy Age level: 5 - 7 years SUMMARY: After Betsy and Tacy become best friends at Betsy's fifth birthday party, they are inseparable. Betsy is lively and imaginative, invents wonderful games, and can make up stories. Tacy, though bashful with people she doesn't know well, is just as merry as Betsy and is a wonderful companion. Together they picnic, explore, dress up, go calling, and gaze upon a certain "chocolate-colored house," where they eventually meet a new friend, Tib. Betsy-Tacy and Tib Age level: 6 - 9 years SUMMARY: Betsy, Tacy, and Tib, who are now eight years old, play just as well together as Betsy and Tacy did, and they never quarrel. Tib, though less imaginative than Betsy and Tacy, is a good sport and enchants the other two with her beauty and accomplishments, which include dancing, cooking, and sewing. Their games are even more imaginative, and their world expands further up the Big Hill, which rises behind Betsy's house. Betsy and Tacy Go Over the Big Hill Age level: 8 - 11 years SUMMARY: When Betsy, Tacy, and Tib turn ten and have "two numbers" in their ages, they make new discoveries which are fitting with their years. Through their interest in the crowning of the new king of Spain and their friendship with Naifi, who lives in a settlement of Syrian immigrants known as Little Syria, they become aware of themselves as Americans in an international world. Their interest in royalty results in a major quarrel with sisters Julia and Katie over who should be crowned Queen of Summer and in Betsy's recognition of stubbornness as one of her faults.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

    There is no frigate like a book to take us lands away... — Emily Dickinson CPLS LITERATURE POLICY, LITERATURE LIST, AND A COMPILATION OF BOOK SUMMARIES TTThere is no Frigate like a Book To take us Lands away Nor any Coursers like a Page Of prancing Poetry -- This Traverse may the poorest take Without oppress of Toll -- How frugal is the Chariot That bears the Human soul. Emily Dickinson For over twenty-five years, Cair Paravel has been providing passage to bear the human soul to far-away places of wonder and adventure through its emphasis on great literature and poetry. We are striving, and will continue to strive, to make our literature program, as well as our library, a true centerpiece of the school. It has been said that, “What a school thinks about its library is a measure of what it feels about education.” We hope that as we continue to try to fill our shelves with only the best, there will be no need to convince a visitor that reading is the cornerstone of our educational program. Reading is, after all, the primary practice of life-long learners. This compilation of summaries of the books that appear on the CPLS literature list has been put together to assist and guide parents and students in their selection of works to read. Many volunteers have donated dozens of hours in the determination of reading levels and point values, and development of the summaries. Special thanks go to Judy Gatewood, Julie Helms, Christine Myers, and Mari Tucker for their work in researching the books and creating the summaries.
