THE MARY JANE SERIES "Mary Jane is the typical American little girl who bubbles over with fun and the good things in life. We meet her here on a visit to her grandfather's farm where she becomes acquainted with farm life and farm animals and thoroughly enjoys the experience. We see her next going to kindergarten and then on a visit to Florida, and then -- but read the stories for yourselves. Exquisitely and charmingly written are these books which every little girl from five to nine years old will want from the first book to the last."* "Pretty little Mary Jane is the heroine of this popular series for young girls.
