Hi everyone a fun children's or young adult's novel, a classic,
Annie Pat and Eddie
By Carolyn haywood
Should be a easy proof.
This is Annie Pat's story, but Eddie is in it too. When Annie Pat (short for
Anna Patricia) announces that she is going to be an actress in a summer
theater by the sea, Eddie is skeptical. In fact, he shows no interest in her
vacation plans at all. But when he is invited to the seashore with Annie Pat
and her family he is delighted.
Surprisingly enough, the Children's Theater has a special attraction for
Eddie, because he likes to print tickets and paint scenery. Annie Pat gives
up on acting as a career but becomes interested in painting for a while.
Lacking any real paints, she uses jams, in three flavors, and tooth paste,
in three colors. But not until the children set up a museum, known as the
"you-see-'em," does Annie Pat really come into her own.
Both children have a wonderful summer, and thousands of others will have a
wonderful time reading this book. In it Miss Haywood, with ease and grace,
exhibits once more her extraordinary gift of invention, which seems to flow
forth like the sparkling water from a clear spring.

The people who burned witches at the stake never for one moment thought of
their act as violence;
rather they thought of it as an act of divinely mandated righteousness.
The same can be said of most of the violence we humans have ever
committed. -Gil Bailie, author and lecturer (b. 1944)
