I was having trouble coming up with the letter I, so I looked at my podcasts to see if I had podcasted about a book whose author’s last name started with I.

I had! The author of the Maida series is Inez Haynes Irwin. You can listen to my podcast about Maida’s Little House here.

Maida’s Little House

I’ve always been fascinated by this book. When I was a little girl and first discovered it on our bookcases, I was intrigued by this little girl who brought her friends to a little house of their own. The way they split the chores made sense to me, and I loved the things they did to have fun.

One day I found the book before this one, Maida’s Little Shop, on Project Gutenberg.  I was glad to read it, because it gave me background information that I hadn’t had before.

There’re a lot more books in the series, but I’ve only read three total. I’m hoping to find more of them somewhere!

Have you read any of these? What did you think of them?
