RE: [GO] Annual type book

2004-11-07 Thread Susan Dunnachie
Why do you think it's not quite an annual.  I'd call it just that.  It's
exactly like many other of my annuals.

Evadne Price wrote the Jane books and Bertha wrote a number of school
stories though I don't much like her.  

It's not a very rare annual.

I don't know about Bertha Leonard, but Evadne Price wrote a long
series of 'Jane' books about an anarchic young girl, sometime
regarded as a sort of female equivalent of Just William.

I haven't read them, but some of them were reprinted fairly 
recently; and Cadogan and Craig discuss them in "You're a Brick,
Angela".
