Author

Betty J. Erickson

The author, Betty Erickson, is the matriarch of the Erickson family. She is not only the oldest, but the wisest, she will be quick to tell you. This little book holds a collection of vignettes Betty recalls clearly from way back when to the present. Since these scenes have stayed alive in her mind, she believes they could be of interest to others. You who survived these experiences may recall them differently, but Betty speaks from her point of view, and they are all gospel truth. Betty and her late husband, Dick, (Richard B. Erickson) begat eight children within a period of ten years - all assets - no liabilities. Betty received her BA from The College (now University) of the Pacific in Stockton, CA, in 1945 and her MA from Mills College in Oakland, CA, in 1952. Sometime in the 60s she became certified as a reading specialist and wrote fiction and non fiction to supplement reading materials under the pen name, Dr. Goose. In 1980 she discovered books for beginning readers by Joy Cowley, a New Zealand author. Betty realized immediately that Joy Cowley’s books for beginning readers were far superior to her own, so without a moment’a hesitation, she dumped her books in the school’s incinerator. But Betty did not give up on writing for children. She attended Joy Cowley’s writers’ workshops and learned to create stories that sparked children’s interest in reading. Seedling Publications, Inc. and Continental Press have published 16 of Betty’s books for beginning, emergent and fluent readers, and they are still in print.
