Step into the enchanting world of Betty Baird, the first book in the beloved Betty Baird Series, a cherished collection of boarding school stories that captivated young girls in the early 1900s. Follow our spirited heroine, Betty Baird, who, despite her obsession with reading boarding school tales, faces ridicule from the elite crowd at The Pines. Yet, with her vibrant personality and indomitable spirit, Betty transforms her challenges into delightful adventures alongside her newfound friends. Inspired by the authors own upbringing under a learned clergyman, Benjamin Baird Hamlin, the story weaves a rich tapestry of friendship, resilience, and the joy of self-discovery. (Holly Jenson)
