Betty MacDonald Fan Club Project

Lukas:

Nina and Nora:

It's a great idea writing about the real persons in Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard Jensen's books.

Wolfgang Hampel's new fascinating interviews with Alison Bard Burnett and other family members might be very helpful for your Betty MacDonald Fan Club project.
They talk a lot about real persons in the books.

Reading Gammy's letter I have the feeling that Betty was Gammy's favourite.
What do you think?
It's kind of sad that Gammy passed away before Betty became famous.

Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor member Letizia Mancino is sharing her new Betty MacDonald essay.
When can we read it? What is it about?

Wishing you a great summer - some like it hot ( I don't)
