TASHA TUDOR
The beloved author, Tasha Tudor, passed away and I was so very sorry to learn of her death. Even more tragic is that her family is fighting over her estate. No mother would be happy about that.
She is the famous author of at least two of my all-time favorite books, "Little Women" and "The Secret Garden" both of which were made into movies after their later fame. The other book mentioned is "Pumpkin Moonshine" but I did not have the chance to read that one.
It is interesting that people that knew Ms. Tudor said that she lived as if she was presently living in Tasha Tudor living as what you might call "an eccentric life" virtually pretending that she was living in the 1800s instead of this century. 19th century citizen of the United States. As part of this lifestyle, it was said she often went barefoot and spun flax into linen for her clothes. Her family lived in the state of New Hampshire with no television, electricity or radio.
No matter, she brought joy to my life as a child reading her books and I am certain to many others as well.
