Mrs. Dahlov Ipcar Robinhood Farm Star Route 2 Bath, Maine
Dear Mrs. Ipcar:
First, let us assure you that we did send a copy of the issue of North Country Libraries in which appeared the article Miss Whalen wrote about you. It must have strayed. We are sending another copy. From time to time Miss Whalen has written profiles of Maine authors, and we always intend that the subject gets a copy of the publication. We are sorry that yours failed to reach you.
Perhaps the word "adopted" does sound harsh. We certainly don't mean it that way. The matter of nativity is beyond our control, and it's true that some writers who were not born in Maine, but who have become so closely identified with the state that we forget they didn't originate here, are among our favorites.
We enclose the list of your books. Those checked in red we do not have. We do, however, have one which doesn't appear on the list: ANIMAL HIDE AND SEEK. It will be wonderful if we can add those the collection is lacking. As you probably know, your books always go immediately into our collections on the bookmobiles, and we are happy to note that the children recognize the appeal of your bright pages as readily as do their elders.
Sincerely yours
