Johnny-up and Johnny-down by Mabel Leigh Hunt

Born into a prominent Quaker family, Ms. Hunt wrote stories as a child and was influenced by her father, a doctor who loved word games and books. After his death she attended DePauw University, in Greencastle, Indiana, for two years (1910-1912) and received a year of library training at Western University Library School in Cleveland, Ohio (1923). She worked as a librarian at the Indianapolis Public Library from 1926-1938, when she resigned to write books full time. She wrote her first book Lucinda, A Little Girl of 1860 (1934) based on her mother's experiences as a Quaker girl living in Indiana. Ms. Hunt had written over 30 books and short stories at her death.
