Emily of Deep Valley: A Deep Valley Book | Maud Hart Lovelace

Save the date, #BetsyTacy fans! The next Betsy-Tacy Convention will be held this year in Mankato, MN in honor of the birthday girl, Deep Valley's Emily Webster! More information to come on speakers, workshops, and activities, but rest assured- if you've never visited Betsy's house, sat on the famous bench, or gallivanted around Lincoln Park (”that pie-shaped wedge!") - you don't want to miss this chance. #BetsyTacyAndTib #MaudHartLovelace

LeahBergen It was SO much fun. There was a terrifying moment when I discovered the house museums would be closed on the weekend I was there but I contacted them and ended up getting a private tour (with some other people who showed up, too). Phew! And I also managed to do some damage in the little gift shop. 😆😆 2mo

Andrea313 @LeahBergen Amazing!!!! I'm so glad someone was able to come through and give the tour! ❤️ 2mo

MaureenMc My daughter and I are going to try to make it! We were just talking about it again over the weekend. 🤞🤞 2mo

Andrea313 @MaureenMc Amazing! Fingers crossed that we meet in Deep Valley! 🤞❤️ 2mo

Betsy in Spite of Herself | Maud Hart Lovelace

I keep an eye out for early editions of Maud Hart Lovelace's books in every used bookstore I go to. I've never been lucky enough to catch one in the wild until this past week! Lo and behold, a tiny, wonderful used bookstore in a tiny northern Michigan town had this glorious copy waiting for me. #BetsyTacy #MaudHartLovelace #MittenLitten

Ruthiella What a find! 😍 7mo

Listen up, #BetsyTacy fans! The next B-T Convention is coming for us! Mankato 2025, will I see you there? #MaudHartLovelace #BetsyTacyAndTib #BetsyTacyTib #EmilyOfDeepValley #DeepValley

MaureenMc I did not know this convention existed. Is it annual?? I am seriously considering trying to make this work. Thanks for posting! 13mo

LeahBergen Oh, this would be fun!! 🤩 13mo

Andrea313 @MaureenMc It happens every few years- 2009, 2012, and 2018 have been the most recent. There was supposed to be one in 2020, but we all know how that ended. Finally, finally it's coming around again, and I'll be sure to keep posting about it! If you're in Facebook, you can follow "The Betsy-Tacy Convention" for updates. 13mo

Andrea313 @LeahBergen I've been several times, it's always a lot of fun! Tours of Deep Valley sites, sometimes workshops, and speakers have included Meg Cabot, Jia Tolentino, and Laura Lippman. 13mo

quietjenn Oh, maybe? Plenty of time to make plans and it would be so fun … 13mo

Andrea313 @quietjenn YES, do it! I love that the date is announced so far out, plenty of time to make those plans.... 13mo

MaureenMc @Andrea313 I followed them on FB. I mentioned it to my daughter & she is definitely interested! 13mo

Andrea313 @MaureenMc Yay! So hope to see you there! 13mo

A lovely summer picnic with the Betsy to my Tacy in an idyllic place requires the source material. #BetsyTacy #MaudHartLovelace

Emily of Deep Valley: A Deep Valley Book | Maud Hart Lovelace

I love the way Emily is side-eyeing the handsome, young Sociology teacher, Jed Wakeman, in this illustration. She's clearly down to engage in a little #TeacherAppreciation and I can't say I blame her. 😉 #MaudHartLovelace #BetsyTacy #FallTreasures

"We'll act as though we owned the school! We'll saunter in with bored expressions. Won't we, Tacy?" Were anyone's #SchoolDays ever so much fun as Betsy Ray's? #BetsyTacy #MaudHartLovelace #FallTreasures

Steeped in Stories: Timeless Children's Novels to Refresh Our Tired Soul: Timeless Children's Novels to Refresh Our Tired Souls | Mitali Perkins

Fantastic #BookHaul today! I absolutely should not have splashed out on these annotated editions but I'm so happy that I did. Mansfield in particular is quite a chunkster and I have grand plans to dig in this fall when the weather turns chilly. Also some lovely Mitali Perkins content; there's an Emily of Deep Valley chapter so you know I wasn't letting this one pass me by! #PemberLittens #MaudHartLovelace #BetsyTacy

Kristin_Reads So pretty!! 4y

rubyslippersreads I think I need all three of these. 😊 4y
