Críticas:
"I grew up 30 miles north of Mankato, and trips to town were filled with mystery and magic, because I was walking the same streets that Betsy and Tacy once walked. The Betsy-Tacy books...., more than any other books, fed my dream of becoming a writer one day."--Jill Kalz, 2008 MN Book Awards Readers' Choice Award winner
"There are three authors whose body of work I have re-read more than once over my adult life: Charles Dickens, Jane Austen, and Maud Hart Lovelace."--Anna Quindlen
"I re-read these books every year, marveling at how a world so quaint - Shirtwaists! Pompadours! Merry Widow hats! - can feature a heroine who is undeniably modern."--Laura Lippman

Martin, creator/author of The Baby-sitters Club

"When I was growing up in the Bronx, I had lots of friends.
