Celebrating Women Writers!
Monday, November 22nd, 1999 Seven Little Sisters; Jane Taylor; American Indian Stories
Hello to all you volunteers! It has been a while since we started the BUILD-A-BOOK season, and I've got quite a lot of news to send along to you all!
COMPLETED:
First, I am delighted to announce three books which have been completed and are now available on-line at the Celebration. They are:
Andrews, Jane (1833-1887)
"The Seven Little Sisters Who Live on the Round Ball that Floats in the Air." (1888 edition, c1861)

Congratulations go out to volunteer Nicole Capehart, who this book and sent it in. It's quite a delightful children's book; with the dual purposes of making geography class lots of fun, and teaching children to regard children of other cultures as their sisters (and brothers.)
Taylor, Jane (1783-1824)
"Memoirs, Correspondence, and Poetical Remains of Jane Taylor" (1783-1824), Edited by Isaac Taylor, Jr., of Stanford Rivers. From "The Writings of Jane Taylor, In Five Volumes (Volume I, Memoirs and Poetical Remains.)" (1832) http://digital.library.upenn.edu/wo | |
