Gwen Grant talkes about Monica Sone

2011-09-12T01:08:00.000-07:00

Good morning, I'm Desi,

Gwen Grant, beloved author and Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor member was sending this message to Betty MacDonald Fan Club founder Wolfgang Hampel:

I'm so very sorry to hear about Monica Sone.

I've just been looking again at THE PLAGUE AND I and loving all over again her pared down elegance and gentle personality.

Monica Sone (Kimi) was a person anyone could love and she has had a firm place in my heart since the day I met her through Betty's book.

I not only loved her but admired her so much. Kimi was one of the most memorable characters I have ever met through literature and, of course, she will live on, just as Betty does.

One of the highlights of last year for me was receiving her e-mail and I am so happy to hear that she liked my Christmas story.

Sad news that can only allow us to be glad that any of us got to meet Monica Sone, through the books THE PLAGUE AND I and NISEI DAUGHTER or in real life for it was such a privilege to know her.

Much love,

Gwen Grant

Thanks a Million dearest Gwen! I love your books and your Christmas story so much.

Monica Sone touched many people in her life.

Desi

Monica Sone, author of Nisei Daughter, Betty MacDonald's friend, described as Kimi in The Plague and I, honour member of Betty MacDonald Fan Club and Betty MacDonald Society

Gwen Grant supports Japan

2011-03-19T04:13:00.000-07:00

I'm Lena,

Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor Member, author Gwen Grant supports Japan.

Thanks a Million for your support.

We love you!!!!!

Lena

Gwen Grant, author, Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor Member:

Dear friends,

We, in the Betty MacDonald Fan Club, have you all very much in mind and in heart.
I think about you constantly and put you in all our prayers.

I watch the daily News in the hope that the situation in Japan will change and that you will all be well cared for.

I think of you in all that snow and cold and our hope is that food and warmth will reach you and sustain you.

Our thoughts and prayers are especially with the children and with every person and family in this sad time of your distress.

We will keep you ever before us, dear friends.

With all love from

GWEN GRANT and EVERYONE in the BETTY MACDONALD FAN CLUB

Maureen and Ron:

Dear friends,

Our prayers and well wishes to our Japanese friends.

Our family has always had close ties to Japan. Grandfather who officiated at Betsy's first marriage was a Japanese speaker and as founder of the Far East Department at the U of W a path builder for Japan in Seattle.

Mother's caregiver Karen, to her relief, did after a long wait hear from her son who teaches in Ishinomaki in Miyagi prefecture.

The pictures are horific and our hearts go out to those who have lost so much.

Maureen and Ron

Ann, writer and journalist:

I don't know what to say.

I, like all who are horrified and heartbroken by all the tragedies that have swept through Japan, pray that there will be hope and help for the Japanese people.

They have an enormous task ahead and I only hope they have the strength to implement it.

Ann

Jon, who knew Betty MacDonald and her family:

In the ocean he finds a drop, in a drop he beholds the secrets of the sea.
Split the atom's heart, and lo! Within it you will find a sun.

I am saddened and worried about the nuclear disaster that followed the series of strong earthquakes and tsunami in Japan.

I am saddened for the people who are suffering and worried about the potentially deadly future that lies before them due to the possible escalation of the release of radioisotopes from the damaged nuclear power plants.

Jon

Janet , journalist and author:

To the friends in Japan,

I am very sorry for all the tragedies and devastation in your country.

Please know that I and many, many people from all over the world are praying for your health and safety.

God bless you all,

Janet

David, author:

This part of Japan felt the earthquake but did not suffer and damage.

Tokyo is having a hard time because some of their electricity came from the nuclear reactors that are now in a dangerous situation. Not only is the destruction terrible, but they don't know where people are.

Right now all the attention is on finding survivors and getting food and shelter to the homeless. Roads, railways, electricity, communications, etc. are all down or very limited and it is freezing at night there.

For the farmers, the future also looks bleak because the ocean waters came inland ten kilometers and flooded the rice fields with salt water.

When you dream, dream big

Part II

Copyright 2011 by Letizia Mancino

Translated by D. Tsiaprakas

We'll meet on Vashon Island.

Don, your second husband is so very much nicer!

I love islands in North America: Though I know only the island „Mount Desert“ in Maine and not the island at the Pacific Coast –Betty's Vashon Island is near Seattle – however things seem to me to be very similar: Magic landscape, cosmic influences and thousands of small odd bits of land swimming in the wide ocean. Can they really swim? It looks as if they were wearing a life jacket around the lushgreen of the woods...

I like Betty's and Don's house! Though I am missing „STOVE“ still there is a mad washing machine that makes life here interesting. What ghosts are likely to live within it? (Don is a Scotsman, I think he has taken it out of a haunted castle). Betty's daughters also live here: They are capricious girls with silly notions! „STOVE“ could be the father! Pity, they have been nicer in the other books when they were still little and sweet!

However, there are nice cats and dogs: Betty is a great animal friend. She has even stored a huge amount of dog and cat boxes in the house. Indeed, the American kitchen is unbelievable!
When Betty can't buy food for humans – this happens with a stormy sea when the ferry boats can't deliver the island – she willingly resorts to those in the „worst case“.O, that culinary ability to adapt myself I will never develop! Do I perhaps eat the mice which my tomcat Tigerli brings me?

Betty's cook book is inexhaustible. From wild animals to marine creatures on the coast. In the Pacific fantastic fish and crustaceans live: Spoiled for choice! O seafood! „The king“ is the lobster, I learned in Maine!

However in Seattle it seems to be „Geoduck“! It's a sensation: It's got along neck! A sea giraffe? What's that? Betty help me! The damned name “Geoduck“ I don't find in my dictionary. The British encyclopedia Britannica doesn't know it either...Moment! I am looking it up in „The American Heritage Dictionary“. Thank God, I have found it: It's „a very large edible clam“. Clam of the size of 20cm.
What's the „cazze di Napoli“ in comparison to that? Mussels, shame upon you before the American! I look out of the window: Betty is crawling in the water with the whole family! Her daughter discovered Geoduck in the water. She grasps the neck of the animal! Clam is in a jam! It's caught! All are shouting for joy! What a delicacy! Betty is running into the kitchen: Clam is being prepared: I turn my eyes elsewhere, I don't want to see anything of it. I hear how the meat is smashed. Eggs are beat together with it. My stomach also feels sick.

Betty is calling to eat. I dont eat that strange animal. It tastes heavenly, says Betty! I believe

I will leave the island.

Wolfgang Hampel's birthday and success

2011-02-04T04:09:00.000-08:00

Bonjour, I'm Arlette,

Happy birthday, dear Gwen Grant and Betty MacDonald Fan Club founder Wolfgang Hampel.

Wolfgang Hampel's success story began in 1983 when he founded Betty MacDonald Fan Club with 4 fans. In 2011 we have members in 30 countries.

Wolfgang Hampel visited all the places where Betty MacDonald and her family lived.
He interviewed Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard Jensen's family and friends.
The international Betty MacDonald Fan Club members tremendously enjoy Wolfgang Hampel's fascinating Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography, his satirical poems and very witty interviews but also his brilliant friends.

Betty MacDonald Memorial Award winner, author and journalist Wolfgang Hampel, meets the most wonderful personalities, for example our Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor members, outstanding authors and artists Monica Sone, Darsie Beck, Gwen Grant and Letizia Mancino.

If you dream - dream BIG! Wolfgang Hampel's big dream came true because of his unbelievable strength and huge energy.

2010 was the most successful year in history of Betty MacDonald Fan Club with three international Betty MacDonald Fan Club Events in Oslo, Stockholm and South Africa.

2011 will be even more successful.
The international Gwen Grant and Betty MacDonald Fan Club ribbon is growing every day.
Betty MacDonald Guru Wolfgang Hampel is especially delighted that we'll have the first Betty MacDonald Fan Club Wedding in 2011.
More Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor members and international Betty MacDonald Fan Club meetings will follow.

Wolfgang Hampel is currently working on a biography of artist, singer and writer Eva Vargas. Good luck and a million times good health!
We are looking forward to listen and read Wolfgang Hampel's interviews, stories, poems and biographies.

Thanks a Million for founding Gwen Grant and Betty MacDonald Fan Club and all the activities in the past and future!
Wolfgang Hampel shares his oustanding comical talent and brings lots of joy and golden laughter to all of us.

Have the most wonderful birthday ever, dear Wolfgang Hampel!

All our love in the name of Gwen Grant and Betty MacDonald Fan Club members in 30 countries

I'm Lisa,

Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor members Monica Sone and Gwen Grant are outstanding writers and personalities.

Monica Sone, author of Nisei Daughter and Betty MacDonald's friend described in Betty MacDonald's The Plague and I, enjoyes Gwen Grant's Xmas story.

We got many mails from our international Betty MacDonald Fans. They like Gwen's delightful story very much. We all do!
Thanks a Million for sharing it, dear Gwen Grant.

Monica Sone:

Gwen Grant's Xmas story was charming and highly imaginative with real stars & the Milky Way decorating a huge cosmic tree. I especially love the conversation between George One & Mr. Estimet, their observations on us humans, the good and the bad. And, of course, I loved Gwen's reminding us that there are some humans who continue to live with hope and giving. This is a lovely Xmas story.

We are semi-frozen here. But it is lovely to look out of the window & see the scene of snow on the pond and trees.

Love,

Monica Sone

This is a very cold winter but stories and messages like this warm our hearts.

Be good to you and others,

Lisa

Christmas with Gwen Grant

2010-12-08T07:58:00.000-08:00

Hi this is Stig,

Angie, your grandmother was a very wise lady as it is our beloved Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor member Monica Sone. To me jealous people are like dwarfs because of their mental disorder. I dislike them very much especially during Christmas time

Very cold days in the State of Washington.

I know Gwen Grant's very special Christmas gift will warm our hearts.

I adore Gwen Grant's books. We can be very proud to have unique Betty MacDonald Fan Club Members like this.

Thanks a Million dear Gwen Grant for sharing this wonderful story!

‘ON TOP OF THE WORLD’

George One had been staring down at the Earth for a little while before he realised something was different.

But what?

Squinting, he concentrated on the big space telescope, the one that was always aimed directly at him. Well, at him and Mr. Estimet, he corrected, because whatever was different seemed to lay there.

‘Ah!’ he exclaimed, as his eyes focussed. ‘That’s it. There’s a new person on the telescope, Mr. Estimet.’

Mr. Estimet, who had also been looking down at the Earth, gently rocking backwards and forwards on his heels, suddenly came to life.

‘A new person, George?’

George zoomed in on the new person and read her name badge.

‘Tilly,’ he announced. ‘Tilly Moffat. Haven’t seen HER before.’

George and Mr. Estimet knew all the people who worked on the big telescope. They knew the ones who got excited about any little change in the Universe, just as they knew the ones who remained calm, even a touch aloof when a new star was spotted, or a new asteroid, or a new anything come to that.

George smiled.

Sometimes, just for the fun of it, he would throw a scrap of foil through the observation window, chortling at the sudden burst of activity below.

Hardly worth a moment’s amusement, though, he admitted, because then he had to go out and get it back and that wasn’t easy, not with the pulling and tugging of all those gravitational fields swooping and soaring around him.

Felt as if he’d been dragged through a force field backwards by the time he’d finished.

But there you are, as Mr. Estimet always said, there was enough junk from the earth cluttering the cosmos without him adding to it.

Now here was Tilly Moffat and George had no idea how she would respond.

‘And that,’ Mr. Estimet pointed out, ‘is because she hasn’t been behind the telescope before. Wasn’t it Zachariah Bumble before Tilly?’

Then Mr. Estimet also closed up on Tilly Moffat.

‘Looks quite pleasant,’ he observed, ‘for a person.’

George was not convinced.

‘Hmmm. Pleasant until she buys a great big field and builds a great big house on it with no regard for the non-humans who were there first.’

‘Now, now, George,’ Mr. Estimet began, then let it go.

His own eyes shifted from Tilly Moffat back to the earth. He could see snow falling in parts of that little world down there and he totally loved snow.

Adored it, really.

Why, if there was anything that could make him volunteer for the very next stint on earth as an observer, it would be snow.

There was no snow on their planet, no misty mornings, no blue seas and golden sands, no anything, really.

‘You know,’ he began, ‘despite all the things they do wrong…’

‘Which is practically everything,’ George put in.

Mr. Estimet stopped him.

‘I know, George, I know, but on the other hand, they do have a capacity for love.’

George One almost snorted.

Love, he thought. They had a capacity for love all right when they drowned the sea in oil and chemicals, when they chopped down the rain forests, when they polluted the air and chucked things into space without a thought for those living there.

But all he said was, ‘Really? They have a capacity for love? Are you sure about that, Mr. Estimet?’

‘Well, look at what some of them do,’ Mr. Estimet began. ‘Some try to save the whale and the tiger. Quite a lot of them are trying to save the world. Yes, yes,’ he held up a hand as George One’s mouth opened, ‘I know much of it is self-interest to avoid extinction but not all of it, George. Many of them, for example, work for peace and, most promising, millions of them care about people they don’t even know.’

George thought about this. Nope, he couldn’t believe any of these things but then, Mr. Estimet always had been a wishful thinker, although he denied it.

‘I’m not a wishful thinker so much as a hopeful energy source,’ he would say, ‘just like some of those people on earth.’

Now, he smiled.

‘Can you see those trees?’ he asked.

George looked down.

‘You mean the few they’ve got left,’ he retorted tersely.

‘No,’ Mr. Estimet’s voice was gentle. ‘I mean the trees with stars on them.’

‘Stars?’

‘Stars.’

There was silence for a moment as both George and Mr. Estimet winkled out the star dressed trees.

‘Hmmm,’ George murmured. ‘Very pretty.’

Mr. Estimet glanced at him.

‘Pretty?’ he repeated, and George blushed.

‘I know it’s an earth word,’ he said defensively, ‘but it happens to be one I like.’

‘And why not,’ Mr. Estimate smiled. Then, ‘Well, George, those trees are called Christmas trees. No, don’t ask me why. I have no idea. All I know is that they do this to them every year and what I thought was, we could put a Christmas tree on top of our planet to show the earth that we quite like them.’

‘At the moment,’ he added.

Ignoring the last remark, George said, ‘Wouldn’t it have to be an extraordinarily big tree?’

‘It would.’ Mr. Estimet’s agreement was instant. ‘But we can do that. We can put a Christmas tree in space with a star on its top branch.’

‘How about the North Star,’ George suggested. ‘That’s the brightest star we’ve got.’

Mr. Estimet shook his head.

‘Better not. They’ll get a bit miffed down there if the North Star suddenly disappears.’

When it was ready, George and Mr. Estimet sent their particle Christmas tree roaring into the silence of the Universe.

It was enormous.

‘Bite bare,’ George said thoughtfully, balancing the North Star on the tip of the tree, whipping a long strand of the Milky Way out of place then

draping it artistically over the branches so that the tree sparkled and shone.

For a moment, the whole Universe shuddered until Mr. Estimet put the strand back almost as fast as George had removed it.

‘Sorry,’ George said.

Other stars were fastened to the tree along with two or three glittering comets put on for a bit of interest and they were having a fine old time until George noticed Tilly Moffat staring up at them.

‘She can see the tree,’ he said.

‘Yes,’ Mr. Estimet nodded. ‘She can.’

The response was immediate from the little world below them and when George spelt out ‘HAPPY CHRISTMAS’ in very small stars, hanging them on the tree in place of the bit of the Milky Way that had been there before, Zachariah Bumble and the whole of the telescope team crowded around Tilly Moffat to stare at the Christmas tree floating in space.

‘Happy Christmas, George,’ said Mr. Estimet, holding the Universe steady as George carefully took down the North Star and put it back where he had found it.

In the deep still silence, George said, ‘Happy Christmas, Mr. Estimet,’ and glancing down at Tilly Moffat’s shining eyes, added one more word to his banner of stars.

‘HAPPY CHRISTMAS, WORLD.’

And to Mr. Estimet’s surprise, this time, George meant it.

Gwen Grant and jealousy

2010-10-28T00:05:00.000-07:00

Good morning, this is Inga

We'd love to know Gwen Grant's opinion regarding jealousy.

Jealousy is a very serious illness. These persons have no self value feeling. They act like angry childs, destroy everything and have a miserable life. Very negative persons, indeed!

I feel sorry for our beloved Betty MacDonald because there was lots of jealousy in her life.

You can find comments of other writers for example:

Betty MacDonald only wrote about herself and boring chickens. I can't understand the reason why THE EGG AND I is so successful.

It's so typical for jealous persons.

I'd like to change this sad subject now.

Let's talk about our future Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor members. We are very happy and grateful.

Betty MacDonald influenced so many people including many writers and artists.

An excellent writer moved to the State of Washington because of Betty MacDonald's unique books.
An outstanding artist and writer will create a special Betty MacDonald Gallery.

We are going to introduce the new Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor members in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter and on our website in December and January.

I hope we'll meet us again in 2011.

My friends and I enjoyed the Betty MacDonald meetings so much. Thank so much for organizing these unforgettable events. It's the unique chance to meet so many international Betty MacDonald fans. They are very optimistic, bright, witty, brilliant and intelligent just the way unique Betty MacDonald is in her books.

I love you and miss you so much!

Wishing you a great time.

Yours forever,

Inga

Hi this is Anita with Eartha Kitt II

Monica Sone and our other Betty MacDonald Fan Club honour members Gwen Grant and Darsie Beck are very glad to hear from their fans from all over the world.
Eartha you and I and many international fans know it. It's a fact, although there are some people who don't know it. I can only say: Don't believe anybody who tells you the opposite. By the way I heard Monica Sone and other family members can't even remember talking to a person who tells fairy-tales like this. Very strange, indeed! To make a long story short: Every Monica Sone, Betty MacDonald, Mary Bard Jensen and Alison Bard Burnett fan in the whole world is welcome to contact us and our Betty MacDonald Fan Club honour members.

Join our international Betty MacDonald Community with fans in 26 countries.

We'll organize a huge international Betty MacDonald Event in 2011.
You'll find more info in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter November 2010.

Eartha Kitt II and I are looking forward to meet you. We'll never forget Oslo, Stockholm and South Africa.

We are delighted to hear from you.

All our love to you and your families

Anita and Eartha Kitt II

It's Anita and Eartha Kitt II,

Gwen Grant is a beloved writer. I was reading her Private! Keep Out! with several of my grandchildren and their friends.
We had tons of fun and laughed and laughed and laughed. We'll never forget it. Thanks a Million dear Gwen Grant!

Gerti, you are working on Betty MacDonald's favourite books and authors. I'll send you some very interesting documents I found during my Betty MacDonald research regarding this very important subject.

Now very wise Eartha looks at me and seems to say: Anita stop typing, please. You are always writing very long mails. Don't bore your readers too much.

Eartha is so bright and she is right. I will stop now.

Wishing you a perfect day,

Anita and Eartha

We hope you'll enjoy the reviews of books by Gwen Grant.
Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor member Gwen Grant belongs to my favourite writers.

It's such a joy to read her unique books.

PRIVATE-KEEP OUT

Review from JUNIOR BOOKSHELF

'Publishers speak of books which will make you want to both laugh and cry, for once this one really does. Gwen Grant's completely authentic recreation of her native North Nottinghamshire speech, thought and humour, unifies the everyday events of a year in the life of a girl, the youngest of five, growing up in the poor area of a market town with a colliery nearby. The pathos comes unsought in the hardships of family life on a low income and the frustrations of the youngest trying to assert her identity in constant clashes with her older brothers and sisters, and the parents who must discipline her. The reader senses the underlying bond of affection which ties together the family, even the older members who attempt to break away into adulthood.
PRIVATE-KEEP OUT is what the heroine writes on her box of treasures, including this book, written on clean paper bought for her by her mother at a jumble sale for three pence and therefore not to be wasted. The characters are bursting with life, cheerfulness and a sense of humour constantly breaks through, and there is compassionate understanding of the adults, the chorus of the neighbours and above all, the narrator herself, dogged, naive, accident prone and delightful. Children will enjoy the escapades of this female William but it is the adults who will see the significance of the picture painted and appreciate the minute observation which makes adventures out of little.

PRIVATE-KEEP OUT

Review from PRIMARY HISTORY 16

'Gwen Grant's PRIVATE-KEEP OUT is the story of a high spirited girl, the youngest of six children, growing up in the Midlands just after the war. First published in 1978, the book is well worth seeking out - not solely because its plot centres around the device of the author's diary. However, if you are looking for a counterpoint to ADRIAN MOLE, ANNE FRANK or SAMUEL PEPYS, look no further than this. KNOCK AND WAIT sees the return of the heroine of PRIVATE-KEEP OUT, this time sent off to hospital in the first days of the NHS. Again the text is simple and appealing and will be well within the compass of many upper KS2 pupils.'

KNOCK AND WAIT
Review from JUNIOR BOOKSHELF

A second book about the heroine of the author's previous story 'Private-Keep Out.' The child (whose Christian name the reader never knows as the book is told in the first person), is sent away from her home in a Nottinghamshire mining village to an open-air school in Kent for a year. This is the chronicle of her life there. It is never dull, often hilarious, and at times moving. The 'Dreadful child' as the autocratic Sister Sweet calls her is obstinate, prickly, accident-prone - and devastatingly homesick. Golda, her Jewish friend, her enemies Beryl 'Bighead' and Doreen 'the Death Watch Beetle' kind Nurse Pretty, are all there for the reader to meet. But it is her family - 'our Joe', 'our Lucy and Rose', 'our Mam', and 'our Prince', (her dearly loved dog), who are most real to her and for whom she longs.
A delightful book, genuine and heartfelt, ungrammatical, but the authentic voice of a child who speaks for all children condemned to stay away from home and fearing they are no longer loved.

*****

ENEMIES ARE DANGEROUS
Review from SCHOOL LIBRARIAN

Two ordinary boys have extraordinary adventures in a deserted quarry. They come across ruthless criminals engaged not only in cockfighting but also in stealing priceless emeralds. They fall down precipices, encounter a savage dog, escape, get kidnapped, escape again and finally go home to their parents. It is very exciting - chiefly because the fear the boys feel in the face of these violent dangers is simply and intensely clear. The reader is pulled very closely into the experience of hiding from a large man bent on evil, or of not having the energy to run fast enough, or the strength to keep a foothold on the quarry face. All our worst nightmares are here but interspersed with considerable humour and wisdom, which allow us at the end to know the characters and foibles of the criminals as well as those of the heroes.'

*****

THE WALLOPING STICK WAR
Review THE JUNIOR BOOKSHELF

The Superchamp Book series adds Gwen Grant's lively tale to a growing list. The book is pocket-sized and well garnished with colour illustrations by Kate Aldous. In 66 pages the author relates the adventures of Kenneth Grey who goes with his Grandad on a camping expedition to escape the grime and grimness of living on a grotty housing estate. It is not long before Mincer Muggs and his gang of juvenile punks appear in all their nastiness. Aggro rules, and it takes Grandad's 'walnut walloping stick' to win the day.
The writing is direct and licks along at a fast rate of knots. Characterisation is easily achieved on the page and overall there is a real feel of the streets about the story. The potential violence is realised without excess while the final come-uppance means that all works out in the end.
A pacy, exciting read for readers gaining in self-confidence.

2010-09-18T11:03:00.000-07:00

I'm Björn,

I was reading Gwen Grant's Private! Keep out! with my nephew. He thinks it was the most funny book we've ever read together and I agree.

Anita, I was reading the first part of your Betty MacDonald Fan Club story in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter. You are a genius! I guess Eartha Kitt II supported you a lot. Outstanding teamwork!

How did you find all these info about Betty MacDonald, Robert Heskett, Donald MacDonald, Darsie Bard, Sydney Bard, Gammy, Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde Jensen, Sydney Cleveland Bard, Mary Alice Bard, Dorothea DeDe Goldsmith, Jerry Keil, Joan MacDonald Keil, Madge Baldwin, Don Woodfin, Perry Woodfin, Mike Gordon, Ma and Pa Kettle, Nancy and Plum, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle and others?

I have a surprise. My parents visited the Northwest in the sixties. Both are huge Betty MacDonald Fans and they went to Vashon of course and they met ........
Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde Reynolds Jensen, Cleve Bard and Mary Alice Bard. We have many photos of the family and my father filmed them with his camera. So you can see and hear the Bard family. I'm going to present this at the next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Meeting.
Mary Bard Jensen is very funny, indeed but you'll enjoy Clyde Jensen, Cleve and Mary Alice Bard as well. A wonderful family!

Jens, you wrote: Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and Betty MacDonald interviews have fans in 26 countries. I bet there will be many more fans in the future.
Isn' t this amazing? Wolfgang Hampel and Alison Bard Burnett are born humorists. Both delight their fans from all over the world. I'd love to have a Wolfgang Hampel CD and DVD with his very funny poems and stories. What about a book? We adore Wolfgang Hampel's high humor and wit in Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and his wonderful Betty MacDonald interviews.

Jens, I agree. I appreciate Wolfgang Hampel's most interesting info of The Egg and I, The Plague and I, Anybody can do anything, Onions in the Stew, Nancy and Plum and the Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle stories. Also included are Mary Bard Jensen's books The Doctor wears three faces, Forty odd, Just be yourself and the Best friends series.

Any news of Betty MacDonald's filmed interview?

Bye for now,

Björn

2010-09-14T07:21:00.000-07:00

Hi this is Thomas,

I've read Private! Keep out! My children and I laughed a lot. Gwen Grant is a very funny writer. We can't wait to read more of Gwen Grant's books.

Many Gwen Grant and Betty MacDonald Fan Club fans are very interested in Wolfgang Hampel's interviews, stories and poems.

You'll be able to read some of Wolfgang Hampel's new satirical stories and poems in our next Betty MacDonald Fan Club magazine.

Wolfgang Hampel is a journalist, author, artist and poet.
He is the winner of the first Betty MacDonald Memorial Award sponsered by a group of international Betty MacDonald collectors and fans.

As we all know Wolfgang Hampel founded Betty MacDonald Fan Club and Betty MacDonald Society in 1983. Betty MacDonald Fan Club has members in 26 countries.
Wolfgang Hampel visited all the places where Betty MacDonald and her family lived.

Wolfgang Hampel's new Betty MacDonald documentary of Betty MacDonald's life in Boulder, Butte, Seattle, Laurelhurst, Chimacum, Vashon Island, Carmel and Carmel Valley is really fascinating. My personal favourites are scenes of Betty's and Don's life in Carmel and Carmel Valley.

Wolfgang Hampel, author of Betty MacDonald Biography, interviewed Betty MacDonald's family and friends and many other famous artists and writers, for example Truman Capote, J. K. Rowling, Maurice Sendak, David Guterson, Donna Leon, Ingrid Noll, Walt Woodward and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Members Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant.

Wolfgang Hampel is also famous for his satirical poems and stories.

Wie wir alle wissen gründete Wolfgang Hampel 1983 den Betty MacDonald Fan Club und die Betty MacDonald Society. Der Betty MacDonald Fan Club hat Mitglieder in 26 Ländern.
Wolfgang Hampel besuchte alle Orte wo Betty MacDonald und ihre Familie lebte.

Wolfgang Hampels neue Betty MacDonald Dokumentation über Betty MacDonalds Leben in Boulder, Butte, Seattle, Laurelhurst, Chimacum, Vashon, Carmel und Carmel Valley ist wirklich faszinierend. Ein Höhepunkt sind Szenen von Bettys und Dons Leben in Carmel und Carmel Valley.

Wolfgang Hampel, Autor der Betty MacDonald Biografie, interviewte Betty MacDonalds Familie und Freunde und viele andere berühmte Künstler und Schriftsteller, z.B. Truman Capote, J. K. Rowling, Maurice Sendak, Donna Leon, David Guterson, Ingrid Noll, Walt Woodward und Betty MacDonald Fan Club Ehrenmitglieder Monica Sone, Darsie Beck und Gwen Grant.

I'm Gregor,

dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club fans,

Wolfgang Hampel's Monica Sone tribute is very touching.
Happy birthday, Monica Sone. I'm one of the many fans who would like to read many more books written by wonderful Monica Sone.

Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor member and author Gwen Grant sent this message to Monica Sone, Wolfgang Hampel and Betty MacDonald Fan Club.

Dear Wolfgang,

I can't thank you enough for giving me the opportunity to write to Kimi.

Lucky day for me when you came along, Wolfgang!

Gwen

Dear Ms. Sone,

This is not to bother you or to require an answer but simply to pay homage to you and to thank you for the years of pleasure you have given me knowing you as Kimi.

Betty called you 'gentle, intelligent, considerate, witty and beautiful,' in her book and everything you said and did supported that summing up.
You were a great inspiration to me with your sweet and gentle behaviour and, of course, your dry and very funny wit. I'm sure many, many others found you so, as well.

I understand it is your birthday and hope very much that you have a lovely day.

Writing to you is something I would never have dreamt could happen so I am very grateful to you for allowing me to send this and for giving me the opportunity to once again thank you for being the Kimi I loved and still love so much.

Gwen Grant

Nena, I hope we can read your Betty MacDonald Fan Club story about Betty MacDonald's second husband Don MacDonald in one of the next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletters.
Wolfgang Hampel's fascinating and witty Betty MacDonald interviews include many memories of Donald Chauncey MacDonald and I wished to have more information. Thank you so much for doing this!

Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald biography include very important details and facts of her life and work. I admire Betty MacDonald's books The Egg and I, The Plague and I, Anybody can do anything, Onions in the Stew, but also Nancy and Plum and the Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle stories. Which is my favourite book? It's impossible to answer this question.
I love all of them.
Therefore I enjoy Betty MacDonald biography very much. It's an excellent opportunity to learn so much more of Betty MacDonald's life in Carmel and Carmel Valley. I'd love to go there to see all this and perhaps to meet wonderful Doris Day. Did Betty MacDonald and Doris Day know each other?

I admire Wolfgang Hampel's brilliant stories and poems. I can't wait to read new ones in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter. A Wolfgang Hampel CD and DVD should be available soon. Betty MacDonald would love Wolfgang Hampel's poems and stories as much as we do.

Take care,

Gregor

I'm Margit,

Dear Monica Sone, Gwen Grant and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,

Wolfgang Hampel, Monica Sone's friend, author of Betty MacDonald biography, winner of first Betty MacDonald Memorial Award sent his very special birthday wishes:

Copyright 2010 by Wolfgang Hampel

Dearest Monica,

we are so very happy to hear that you are well again and wish you a wonderful birthday today. A Million Times good health and all the best!

I was rereading your book Nisei Daughter and I have to tell you that I agree with your many international fans. I wished I could read many more books written by great author and unique personality Monica Sone.

I also agree with the New York Herald Tribune review of Nisei Daughter: Monica Sone's account of life in the relocation camps is both fair and unsparing. It is also deeply touching, and occasionally hilarious.

Yes, that's it! Deeply touching, also occassionally hilarious! When I'm reading your great book ( Nisei Daughter belong to the VERY few books I'm reading over and over again ) I'm really deeply touched. I'm with you and your great family. I adore your outstanding book and even much more I adore your unique personality. You are a genius but very human and warm with a deep understanding and a golden heart.

The first time I heard your very warm voice I was lost. To me it's the most beautiful voice in the whole world. Voice and personality fit together in just a perfect way.

2010 was a very successful year for Monica Sone and Betty MacDonald Fan Club.

Linde Lund and her Betty MacDonald Fan Club Event Team organized the Monica Sone and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Royal Wedding Event in Stockholm with many Monica Sone and Betty MacDonald fans from five continents.

They saw the swedish royal wedding of Crown Princess Victoria and Daniel Westling.
Victoria is the eldest child of King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia, and belongs to the Royal House of Bernadotte. Born as a Princess of Sweden, she was designated Crown Princess in 1979 ahead of her younger brother.

Monica Sone and Betty MacDonald Fan Club sent a wedding present, books written by unique Monica Sone, Betty MacDonald and some Betty MacDonald Interviews by me, Wolfgang Hampel.
When I heard it I was very amazed. What do you think about this, dear Monica?
I hope Crown Princess Victoria and Daniel Westling will enjoy it very much.

Thanks A Million for your friendship.

Although we are far away you and your family are always in our thoughts.

Many hugs and greetings especially from Master Peter to great Lady Monica.

Darling Peter said to me: Monica seems to get younger and younger and you are getting older and older. Before you look like an ooooolllllddd Wolf and act like a grandpa you should better ask Monica, what her secret is. Perhaps she might be able to help you. So Monica help me please, will you? It's really urgent. I'm awaiting your instructions.

We have a Royal Wedding Weather today with lots of sunshine. The sky is so blue and there are no clouds in the sky.

We wish you'll have the same 'Queensweather' and the most wonderful birthday ever.

I'll forward your email-adress to author and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member Gwen Grant who is going to write you.

All our love

Wolfgang, Angelika and Peter -
your old Wolf and your many fans worldwide

Wolfgang Hampel Founder of Betty MacDonald Fan Club and Betty MacDonald Society

I'm Jens,

It's a brilliant idea to ask our great Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honory Members, authors and artists Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant about their experiences of chickens.
Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honory Member and author Gwen Grant wrote a book about her experience of chickens. I'll order FOX FIRE soon.

I adore Alison Bard Burnett's goldies in Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews.
You can compare unique Alison Bard Burnett with her famous sister Betty MacDonald, although she never wrote a book of her own.

Thank you so much, dear Linde Lund. We can be very grateful that Linde Lund heard of Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews. Linde had the fascinating idea to share them with Betty MacDonald Fans from all over the world. Linde, you are great!

Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and Betty MacDonald interviews have fans in 26 countries. I bet there will be many more fans in the future.
Isn' t this amazing? Wolfgang Hampel and Alison Bard Burnett are born humorists. Both delight their fans from all over the world. I'd love to have a Wolfgang Hampel CD and DVD with his very funny poems and stories. What about a book? We adore Wolfgang Hampel's high humor and wit in Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and his wonderful Betty MacDonald interviews.

Morten, I agree. We have to find somebody like Mike Gordon, Bill Gates or Dagobert Duck who might be interested in purchasing Betty MacDonald's filmed interview.
Did you already ask your cousin? I'd die to see Betty MacDonald's filmed interview in colour.
I wished I'd be wealthy and prrrrominent. I'd buy Betty MacDonald's filmed interview in a minute.

Nice weekend.

Jens

I'm Morten,

It's a very good idea to ask our great Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honory Members, authors and artists Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant about their experiences of chickens.

What a surprise!
Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honory Member and author Gwen Grant even wrote a book about her experience of chickens. Thank you so much for sending this very interesting mail.

Yes, as it happens I do have some experience of chickens. When I was a girl, my father kept hens. And I actually wrote a book about keeping hens, FOX FIRE, and the different attitudes of two children to hens and foxes. We kept the hens at the bottom of the garden in a well protected, as we thought, hen run but one morning, we found them all dead. The foxes had got them. My Dad redoubled his efforts after this and the hen run eventually became so secure, it was all anyone could do to get in it to feed them!
The hens we had were a bit confrontational, I'm sorry to say, for when we went to get the eggs, we had to be careful as they would peck your hands. There were times though, when it was nice to go in and sometimes be allowed to stroke some feathers.

I'll draw a veil over the killing process when the hens were ready for the pot. I always made myself scarce at that point. However, my Mum taught me how to do everything from skinning and preparing a rabbit through gutting and cleaning a fish to plucking a chicken and cleaning it ready for the pot. All I have to say to all of these activities is Yuk.

FOX FIRE - ISBN: 1-85213-337-6 - Orchard Books

Best wishes,

Gwen Grant

We can't wait to read Gwen Grant's book FOX FIRE.

Take care,

Morten

Gwen Grant, Betty MacDonald's chickens

2010-08-21T04:46:00.000-07:00

I'm Anita,

Good morning, Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,

I'm working on a story about Owning Chickens for Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter.
You will learn many thoughts for example of Betty MacDonald, Robert Eugene Heskett, Donald Chauncey MacDonald, Darsie Bard, Sydney Bard, Gammy, Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde Reynolds Jensen, Cleve Bard, Mary Alice Bard, Dorothea Goldsmith whose name in Betty MacDonald's books is Dede of course, Madge Baldwin, Don Woodfin, Mike Gordon, Ma and Pa Kettle, Nancy and Plum, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle and many other family members and friends.

Sandrine darling, you are right. A serious warning! Don't ever listen to Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews in public places. I did it in a bus. I felt off my sit because I couldn't stop laughing about this crazy couple. Wolfgang Hampel and Alison Bard Burnett share their witty experiences with family and friends but also about owning chickens. Terribly funny!

This new Betty MacDonald CD and DVD influenced me to write a Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter story about owning chickens. I agree with humor champion Alison Bard Burnett. She got it! When you feel blue you only have to listen to Wolfgang Hampel and Alison Bard Burnett. Don't do it in a childish way like I did. By the way I did hurt myself.

I don't agree with Geoff Taylor's description about owning chickens.

Hens make a soothing clucking noise?

Oh No!!!! They don't. I know it from practice.
They wake you up early in the morning. I'm a longsleeper. I hate their noise. It's just awful.

Everyone should have a dozen chickens?.

Everyone? What is the reason why? I never liked chickens.

They’re far more soothing to the jangled city psyche than colorful fish swimming in a tank on a bookshelf?

Oh dear, Geoff, stop it, please! This is kind of a very romantic feeling. I'm sure Betty MacDonald would hate it and I agree. A back to the country feeling.

I'm a city girl and love my wonderful cat named Eartha Kit, who is as beautiful as Eartha, the singer. Wild Eartha is a city girl too and of course we celebrated World Cat Day together.

Chickens give you eggs on your breakfast plate that are better and fresher than Bill Gates eats, unless he also keeps chickens?

Eartha and I don't need eggs, in fact we don't like them. I can't imagine Bill Gates keeps chickens. If so I'd be very disappointed because I adore his intelligence.
So you know how I feel about Geoff Taylor's thoughts.

I'd like to know what our very bright and charming Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Members, authors and artists Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant think about owning chickens. I'm really very curious. I bet they don't like them.

Chickens remain what they are. Stupid!
The world don't need their stupidity. We need more intelligence, tolerance and understanding. That's what we need.

Eartha looks at me and seems to say: Anita, dull chick you sound like a prayer today. You still have to learn a lot!
Isn't Eartha very wise? She is so much more intelligent than I am.

Have a nice day, dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans!

Anita

It's Carla,

Hi Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,

we can be very fortunate to have these excellent Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour members Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant.

Next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour member is a famous writer and artist and President of a world famous Society? I saw a list of possible candidates in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter. I'm very surprised and impressed. As I'm not Miss Marple II I'm not successful at all in finding this personality.

Cornelia, you can't do things like this. You have to know I'm very impatient and curious. You wrote that Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard would have been crazy about our next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour member because you can read this in their books. What are you talking about? I'd need a little help.

Nice weekend, Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans and Cornelia!

Yours,

Carla

I'm Cornelia,

Good morning Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,

How wonderful to learn more about our new Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member, author Gwen Grant. I'm looking forward to read Gwen's books. I adore her poems. They make my day.

I like Gwen Grant's descriptions so much. Gwen Grant felt so fortunate to find Betty MacDonald's books and carried them home as tenderly as if they were eggs!
I can understand Gwen Grant's feelings very well. I felt the same when I found Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard's books.

One of my favourite writers is our Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member Monica Sone, author of Nisei Daughter and Betty MacDonald's friend Kimi in The Plague and I.

Stella, it was World Cat Day. My sisters and I have many cats and they got their World Cat Day gifts. Our children love them. I'm not sure what our husbands think about them. I guess they like dogs, but we are crazy about cats. We know Betty MacDonald owned cats but what about Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle?
She has a cat named Lightfoot and Wag, her dog. Nancy and Plum play with a black mother cat and her three kittens in the barn on Christmas Day. Even Ma and Pa Kettle own a cat.

Our next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member loves cats. You can see this in artwork and books. A famous writer and artist and President of a world famous Society.

Our Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Members are outstanding.
Betty MacDonald loved our Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Members, her fascinating nephew, artist and writer Darsie Beck and her wonderful friend, author Monica Sone. Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard would have been crazy about author Gwen Grant and our next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member because you can read this in their books.
Are you curious now? I hope so very much.

Dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans, do you know who is the next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member? If so send a message to Francine, please. You can find her contact info in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter Page 1.

If you are right you can win one of the future Betty MacDonald Fan Club Items.
Deadline is end of August.

Gwen Grant Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member

2010-08-10T00:36:00.000-07:00

This is Ina,

We received this mail from our Betty MacDonald Fan Club honour member Gwen Grant, beloved author and Betty MacDonald Fan.
I agree we have the most interesting and fascinating Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour members.

Welcome to Betty MacDonald Fan Club, dearest Gwen Grant.

I'm sure Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans from all over the world will enjoy reading your wonderful books.

Ina

Dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,

I've just taken down from my bookshelves the four books of Betty's that I have and they've been read so much, the covers of THE EGG AND I and ONIONS IN THE STEW are a a bit battered! I was interested in the dates they were published and thought others might be interested, as well.

THE EGG AND I - 1955 - llth impression
THE PLAGUE AND I - 1949
ANYBODY CAN DO ANYTHING - 1951
ONIONS IN THE STEW - Not dated

and 'WHO, ME?' 1960 - a compilation of Betty's work and this has a small photograph of Betty on the cover of the book itself and inside there is a photograph of Betty and two of her grandchildren.

Three of them are Book Club books and they look nothing from the outside - give no idea of the brilliant world within. Opening one of Betty's books is like finding treasure. The 1949 and 1951 books I bought at a Jumble Sale when I was about 17 and had read THE EGG AND I. I felt so fortunate to find them and carried them home as tenderly as if they were eggs! I think they were printed on wartime paper because the paper isn't spectacular. I imagine, though, that there are much older books than these around and just as much loved as mine.

Another fan of Betty's asked recently how old I was when I first read Betty's books - I think I was about 16. I read THE EGG AND I first because from the moment I read that first paragraph, I was hooked. I loved reading about people's lives and that opening paragraph is so instantly appealing.
My own books were much influenced by Betty, especially KNOCK AND WAIT, which is the story of my year at an Open Air School, which was a bit like a Sanatorium but wasn't.

PRIVATE-KEEP OUT is the first in my trilogy dealing with my childhood. There are fictional elements to this book but the basis is true.
My family, for instance, at that time was my three brothers but I had a sister who died. All the same, I thought of her as still being my family, so I put her in my book as Lucy. I have another sister younger than me - so the heroine had two sisters, but, I have to say, all the nice parts of Rose are my youngest sister's - all the other bits are me! The town I lived in is there, the street I lived in, the feelings I had, many of the things that happened.

KNOCK AND WAIT - When I first wrote this book, it wasn't at all funny, and I wasn't happy with it. It sounded too sad and too dark, so, remembering THE PLAGUE AND I and Betty and Kimi's response to their situation, I rewrote KNOCK AND WAIT and this time I was happy with it. It was funny and yet it showed the truth of my year in that hsopital school. Betty walks a tightrope with THE PLAGUE AND I because to write about something so life changing as a serious illness and yet keep it light but without minimising the impact it has on your life or belittling the experience, because, of course, there are others who suffer as well, is tremendously difficult. Betty had that unique ability and I think that ability came from the generosity of her nature.

ONE WAY ONLY - there are fictional elements in this book but still mixed with many elements of truth.

I have written other children's books about subjects that have been important to me and these will eventually appear on my website which is still being built. I wish I could say I was building it but it's my husband, Ian, (a Scot) who is actually doing the work. When my is finished, all my books will be on it and more of my poems.

I have written four picture books - LITTLE BLUE CAR, which is about a new little car learning how he works - just like all small children. This was a story I used to tell my grandchildren. Their father had a little blue car so I just brought the car to life - helped by the children's fondness for it.

JONPANDA - about a Panda. I have that Panda still. I had him when I was a little girl and now he's so old and battered, he lives in tissue paper in a paper bag in the cupboard. JONPANDA comes to life for his friend, Mamie, who has rescued him from a wretched life at the fairground and they share a challenging experience together.

MATTHEW AND HIS MAGIC KITE - a story of a little boy's adventure on a kite that turns out to be magic. He goes to the North Pole on the kite because I always loved the idea of the North Pole, and has an adventure with a bear. Now this bear was one that used to be in Dundee, Scotland, museum and we lived there for a year. I used to take my sons to look at it but my imagination was captured by this bear and I looked at it as much as the boys. I once stepped over the rail that said 'KEEP OUT' and touched its fur and it was hard and spiky. Poor bear.

RACE DAY- this is a story about all kinds of vehicles competing in a race - but it's also about Littel Red Bubble car being kind to animals and to the other vehicles in the race. I guess I just wanted to highlight how so very often kindess and competitiveness go hand in hand.

At the moment, I'm working on a book called THE LAST COAL BARGE. I live in a village that used to have a coal mine at its heart. That's gone now but in its place there is a marina. However, there is a history in the old pit area and Danny meets part of it when he meets the mysterious Jarred Turner, his pony, Boxer and his pet blackbird, Casey. It tells of the fate of the last coal barge lying in the deep water of the pit.

PRIVATE-KEEP OUT can be ordered from Amazon but the other books have to be sought out. I hope many of you will read my stories and enjoy them.

Love, Gwen Grant.

2010-08-07T05:53:00.000-07:00

I'm Gracia,

Hello Miriam and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,

Wolfgang Hampel's Ma and Pa Kettle biography is much funnier than a Ma and Pa Kettle movie. When Betty MacDonald's sister Alison Bard Burnett talkes about her experiences with the Kettles even my mother-in-law is laughing. This is very surprising because she laughs very seldom.
We don't have neighbours like the Kettles. Our neighbours are like Mr. and Mrs. Hicks.
They have no children. We have a boy and two girls. Mr. and Mrs. Hicks are cutting down everything in the garden. Ours looks like a paradise or a green hell with many trees and branches. Mr. Hicks always says to us: If you need help I'll cut everything down for you but we refuse so far. We have two dogs. Mr. and Mrs. Hicks don't like dogs or cats because Mrs. Hicks is very allergic. By the way we won't ever have any chickens although is seems that our children bring a new pet home every day. I know what they are talking about when they say: Mother, we have a surprise! You won't believe it! ( I do! )

Mrs. Hicks is cleaning the house night and day and is called ' our newspaper' because she knows everything about the people in our community.
You know I thought it was a very witty idea to lend our Mrs. Hicks Betty MacDonald's The Egg and I which she wasn't aware of. After she read Betty MacDonald's book she said smiling: It was very funny but I dislike this awful Mrs. Hicks. She obviously doesn't understand the meaning of life. I couldn't say anything and looked at her with an open mouth. Mrs. Hicks gave me a strange look and said: Darling, is everything ok with you? You look terrible this morning!

I want to share a very special Betty MacDonald family story. My grandmother wrote letters to Betty MacDonald, Mary and Sydney Bard because she loved Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard's books. She was very fond after she got delightful letters written by Betty MacDonald, Mary Bard and even from mother Sydney Bard. I'll write a Betty MacDonald Fan Club Article about it.

My girls and I like like Betty MacDonald's Nancy and Plum, The Egg and I, Anybody can do anything and Onions in the Stew. My hubby as he has the same profession as Mary Bard's husband Dr. Clyde Jensen prefers Betty MacDonald's The Plague and I and Mary Bard's The doctor wears three faces. Our boy likes the Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle Stories. He always says: I don't behave like the boys and girls in the books and don't need a Piggle-Wiggle cure. I'm not sure. Not at all!

We can't wait to read Gwen Grant's books. We are very fond of Monica Sone's Nisei Daughter. Monica Sone, who is Kimi in Betty MacDonald's The Plague and I, is our favourite person in Betty MacDonald's books.

We would like to visit the state of Washington, Seattle, Laurelhurst and Vashon Island and attend one of Darsie Beck's workshops.

Congratulations! Betty MacDonald Fan Club has the most interesting and fascinating Betty MacDonald Honour members. Who will be the next?
Is it really a famous artist and writer and President of a world famous society? How wonderful!

Eurovision Song Contest Betty MacDonald Fan Club Event Oslo 2010 was unforgettable.
Thank you, guys! I'm one of you!

This is Miriam,

As I'm a mother of four children I enjoyed the Betty MacDonald Fan Club News. We have a very successful and famous author for children as new Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member. I'd love to receive more information about Gwen Grant. When did Gwen Grant read Betty MacDonald's books for the first time and which one is her favourite book? Does she know Mary Bard's books as well? What does she think about Monica Sone's book Nisei Daughter? Our family, even very difficult Gammy, are very interested in reading Gwen Grant's funny books.

Hello, I'm Serge,

Dear Gwen Grant and Betty MacDonald Fan Club fans,

I just visted Gwen Grant's website and found her link to Betty MacDonald Fan Club.

http://www.gwengrant.co.uk/

Gwen Grant:

As Betty MacDonald has been one of my favourite authors ever since I read THE EGG AND I, and whose writing has greatly influenced my own work, I am really delighted to be an honour member of the Betty Macdonald Fan Club

This is a link to the Betty MacDonald Fan Club site.

We are very happy to have Gwen Grant as a Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour member.

We'll order Gwen Grant's books because our family, friends and I like to read very funny books.

A very warm Welcome to Betty MacDonald Fan Club, dear Gwen Grant.

We are delighted.

Francesca, you talked about Wolfgang Hampel's and Alison Bard Burnett's wild ride on Alison's old VW. We 'd love to see this very special couple riding through Seattle. Does Betty MacDonald Fan Club have a video or a DVD about this?

Anyway - Wolfgang Hampel's other Betty MacDonald Interviews should be published because everybody wants to hear and see more about Betty MacDonald and the unique Bard Family. We are very grateful that Wolfgang Hampel interviewed the whole Bard family and many other friends.

Have a nice Sunday,

Serge

It's Francesca,

dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,

We are so grateful and happy because of having such outstanding Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Members.

Gwen Grant, beloved writer and Betty MacDonald Fan.
My family and I have read Gwen Grant's book PRIVATE-KEEP OUT. We laughed tears.
Gwen Grant is soooooooooo funny! I can promise that we are going to read Gwen's other books too. Betty MacDonald would enjoy Gwen Grant's books as much as we do! As Barbara already said: Gwen Grant is a fascinating writer. We are very happy and proud. We are, indeed!

Yours,

Francesca
