Understood Betsy

The Putneys are not as bad as her doting, high-strung Aunt Frances warns, however, and Elizabeth, who had been nurtured by her aunt like an overwatered sapling positively blooms under their breezy, earthy care.Fisher, Dorothy Canfield is the author of 'Understood Betsy', published 2007 under ISBN 9781435311886 and ISBN 1435311884.
