I remember hearing about Elsie Dinsmore. ...and wikipedia comes through for me!! "The Elsie series is also mentioned in Emily Climbs, the second book of a series by Lucy Maud Montgomery, when Emily is told in a derisive comment by Mr. Carpenter to "go read the Elsie books.""

apparently the author wrote 28 books in the series. look at those titles; good grief!

when wikipedia describes the parody, it sez: "The story pokes fun at Elsie Dinsmore's very naive take on the world, where as long as one has faith, follows the lead of those in moral authority, and with enough personal suffering, one will be rewarded... mostly by one's parental connections."

dear me. did you read this for class? I am very interested in hearing about your courses sometime.
