Ma and Pa Kettle - and Betty MacDonald fan club fans,
Betty MacDonald Fan Club Events are like a Betty MacDonald ribbon around the world.
You can see that many fans from different cultures and backgrounds have something in common: They love good humor and very warmhearted, funny and witty writers like Betty MacDonald.
I'm one of these many Betty MacDonald Fans.
Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald biography and the very funny interviews paint a perfect picture and portrait of beloved Betty MacDonald. I can't wait to listen to the new edition of Betty MacDonald Interviews. Wolfgang Hampel did not only interview Betty MacDonald's family. He also interviewed many famous artists and writers.
It'll be very interesting to hear their opinion about Betty MacDonald and her work
I adore Wolfgang Hampel's interviews with Betty MacDonald's sister Alison Bard Burnett. It's real Bard magic. She is such a wonderful, wonderful storyteller. Alison Bard Burnett is the mother of famous artist and writer Darsie Beck, honour member of Betty MacDonald Fan Club and Society.
As a special Betty MacDonald Bonus Alison Bard Burnett and daughter Alison Beck share the most interesting info about Laurelhurst, Chimacum, Vashon Island, Carmel, Ma and Pa Kettle, Nancy and Plum and Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle. It's so cute!
I love Alison's warmhearted and so very witty stories about her mother Sydney Bard and her sisters Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard. She also remembers very well Monica Sone.
My favourite in Alison Bard Burnett's memories is her sister Dede. Alison Bard Burnett shares the most fascinating stories and thoughts about her very gifted sister Dorothea Goldsmith.
What a lady!
Yours,
Maria
Don't miss this very special book, please.

Yes Betty, either or it seems he wanted to fly only with
Singapore Airways.
Boeing or Airbus, it’s just the same
isn’t it? Aren’t they both just fat birds with 500 passengers?
Yes, but Singapore Airlines has the
most beautiful airhostesses: delicate, fine, graceful… Mr. Tigerli had looked forward to the flight
so much!
So the little man was disappointed?
You just can’t imagine how disappointed
he was.
But thank God one of the hostesses was a
pretty Chinese girl. Mr. Tigerli purred loudly but she didn’t hear him because
the purring of the Airbus 380 was even louder.
The poor cat!
You’ve said it Betty. Mr. Tigerli was
in a very bad mood and asked me for a loud speaker.
I’m sure you can get one in 1st
Class.
“”Russian Girl” had even heard you over
the roar of the Niagara Falls” I said to Mr. Tigerli. “You are a very
unfaithful cat. You wanted to get to know Asiatic girls. That’s how it is when
one leaves one’s first love”.
And what did he say to that?
“Men are hunters” was his answer.
Yes, my dear cat, a mouse hunter. And
what else did he say?
Not another word. He behaved as if he
hadn’t heard me.
The Airbus is very loud.
I told him shortly “Don’t trouble
yourself about “Chinese Girl”. There will be enough even prettier girls in
China. Wait till we land in Guilin”.
Did he understand you?
Naturally Mr. Tigerli understood me
immediately. Yes, sweetheart, don’t worry. They will find you something sweet
to eat.
And he?
He was so happy.
No problem going through the immigration
control?
Naturally! Lots of problems. How could I explain to
customs that the cat had come as a tourist to China to buy shoes?
Fur in exchange for shoes…
Don’t be so cynical Betty!
Cat meat in exchange for shoes?
He came through the pass control with
no trouble!
Is this Mr. Tigerli?
Betty MacDonald's Vashon Island is a paradise.
