What's in a Name?

Betty's books have had several incarnations and even have been translated into several languages! We have a few of the different book covers but are always looking for more! If you have an unusual dust jacket or cover, send a photo or scan to us in jpeg form and we'll post it! Meanwhile, visit titles, and book covers to see the colorful collection.
