A shot of the cover is here: http://www.antiquariat-libelle.ch/aktuell/kinderbilderbuecher.htm -- the bookseller attributes it to "Lindberg, M[arie]", I don't know if that is of any use in trying to find out more about the author -- every place else I have seen agrees that her name was Maja.The Modesto Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13495938191100565263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2402275990823741920.post-52909963795235751212010-05-04T13:00:11.055-04:002010-05-04T13:00:11.055-04:00Fascinating, it certainly must be the same Siri An...Fascinating, it certainly must be the same Siri Andrews.Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05799869059793681283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2402275990823741920.post-16443491543876119582010-05-04T12:52:14.219-04:002010-05-04T12:52:14.219-04:00Interesting to see that Siri Andrews was Beverly C...Interesting to see that Siri Andrews was <a href="http://www.washington.edu/alumni/columns/june99/andrews.html" rel="nofollow">Beverly Cleary's favorite teacher</a> at library school.
