Billy didn't factor that much into the story but my 7 year old enjoyed this one in the series too.

Read this book because I promised my daughter I would.
I love the Betsy character because I think every little girl can see themselves in her.
This book was kinda boring to read straight through which is why it took me months to finish.
But Betsy and Billy are so cute.
It's nice to travel back to a simpler time when kids did plays with farm animals from their grandfather's local farm.
Great books for kids.

The second book in the Betsy series in which Betsy enters Second Grade and the chapters follow several of the holidays throughout the school year.
A great choice for your beginning reader!

**Like my reviews? Then you should follow me! Because I have hundreds more just like this one. With each review, I provide Content Considerations, mentioning any objectionable content I come across so that parents and/or conscientious readers (like me) can determine beforehand whether they want to read a book or not. Content surprises are super annoying, especially when you’re 100+ pages in, so here’s my attempt to help you avoid that!

I have been looking for these books everywhere and I am so glad to have finally found them! While my friends in elementary school were always checking out the more "popular" books in the library, I found myself coming back to this series again and again. I'm pretty sure I read every book in the series at least twice! I'm a little perturbed to discover that they've been re-released with a more modern cover, because I actually prefer the vintage look. Brings back so many memories and should I stumble across these somewhere, I may just have to read them again!

My number of stars are based on when I first read this book as a kid thirty years ago. I loved this book, and I loved the whole Betsy series. Betsy and Billy was the first one I read, and it was during summer vacation.
