the popular crowd

.
i came across this vintage novel at the thrift store last week.


i thought "the popular crowd" might offer tips on how to be popular - ha!  but instead it is the endearing tale of sue morgan, a "popular girl" + her charmed circle.  sigh.


other books by anne emery.  "first orchid for pat" sounds like a real page-turner!


now for the curious bit.  it is an old library book from a local school district.  while i was showing the book to a friend, i took a look at the library check-out slip.  surprise!   on december 11, 1968 the book was taken out by a "ms. rasmussen".  that's me!
