Review by Horn Book Review

In these reissues of Haywood's popular books from the forties, Betsy and her friends exchange May baskets, the neighborhood policeman (Irish, of course) is everyone's friend, and there's an old woman who sells fresh pretzels for a penny outside the schoolyard gate. The nostalgia market may be the ultimate destination for these books that depict an impossibly innocent time. [Review covers these titles: ""B"" Is for Betsy, Back to School with Betsy, Betsy and Billy, and Betsy and the Boys.] (c) Copyright 2010.
