And of course, drawled Laura Polk, she of the irrepressible spirits and what Mrs. Cupp called "flamboyant" hair, "she will come riding up to the Hall on her trusty pinto pony (whatever kind of pony that is), with a gun at her belt and swinging a lariat. She will yell for Dr. Beulah to come forth, and the minute the darling appears this Rude Rhoda from the Rolling Prairie will proceed to rope our dear preceptress and bear her off captive to her lair -" "My - goodness - gracious - Agnes!" exclaimed Amelia Boggs, more frequently addressed as 'Procrastination Boggs', "you are getting your metaphors dreadfully mixed. It is a four-legged beast of prey that bears its victim away to its 'lair.'" "How do you know Rollicking Rhoda from Crimson Gulch hasn't four legs?" demanded the red-haired girl earnestly. "You know very well from what we see in the movies that there are more wonders in the 'Wild and Woolly West' than are dreamed of in your philosophy, Horatio-Amelia."
Autorenporträt
Annie Roe Carr was an American author known for her engaging juvenile fiction, particularly the Nan Sherwood series. She was born to parents whose names are not widely documented, and little is known about her early life, but she developed a talent for writing stories that captured the imagination of young readers. Married to a man whose details also remain scarce, Carr crafted novels that blended adventure, mystery, and lessons about friendship and resilience. Her most famous works include Nan Sherwood at Rose Ranch, Nan Sherwood at Palm Beach, and Nan Sherwood s Winter Holidays, each reflecting her ability to create vivid, relatable characters in exciting settings. The Nan Sherwood series followed its heroine through various adventures, from seeking hidden treasure to solving local mysteries, resonating with readers for its blend of suspense and moral growth. Carr s work was part of a broader tradition of early 20th-century American girls literature, emphasizing personal development and courage. She passed away in relative obscurity, and though many details of her personal life, including the names of close family members, remain undocumented, her literary contributions continue to be remembered by enthusiasts of vintage children s fiction.
