Customer Reviews

Ginnie and Geneva characters

I adored these two characters as a child, and wished that Catherine Wooley had written more books focused on them! I whole-heartedly believe they should be reprinted! My daughters' school library still has a couple of these Wooley books on its shelves, the very ones I read in the early 1970's!

The Best!!

I have read the Ginnie and Geneva books over and over ever since I was Ginnie's age. Catherine Woolley is such a wonderful writer who really understands young girls. I recently re-read Ginnie and Geneva (again, even though I'm all grown up) and I felt as if I actually were Ginnie. The descriptions of what Ginnie sees and feels are so well-done. I can't wait until my daughter is old enough to enjoy these great books too.

Bring Ginnie back

Bring Ginnie back to print! These books painted a colorful picture of Ginnie's adventures. Catherine Wooley does a great job of describing Ginnie's surroundings in great detail. She makes you feel like you are there. You can smell the food, feel the cold winter air, etc. It's really ashame they are out of print.

a reader from Connecticut

I totally agree with the reader from Indianapolis. Please,please reprint these great Ginnie books and also "Ellie's Problem Dog"

A great book about best friends!

Here are 2 little girls that seemingly don't have much in common, but become best friends. If you loved the Betsy books, you'd love these. I wish they would come back in print! My daughter would love them as much as I did!
