Update Friday: Liza Lou and the Yeller Belly Swamp

Hello and welcome to Update Friday, the day when I take a post of yore from back when I only included one scan and minimum commentary and update it for my picture-hungry readers. Today, I'm dusting off a post from October 2007, one of my all-time favorite Mayer stories. It was the very first book EVER from my childhood that I used the magic of the internet to track down the title, way back in 1999, I believe. The dawn of the mainstream electronic age. Ha! So without further waxing of the whatever, please enjoy the fabulous and seasonaly-appropriate, Liza Lou and the Yeller Belly Swamp.

TGIF people!

Burgin. I love this book and so do the kids. I'm curious what type of scanner do you use. Your images are always crystal clear.

I use a Canon Pixma and then tweak on Photoshop. I don't always get it right, but I try!

This one has always been a favorite of mine and like you, it was one of the first books from my childhood I tried to relocate via the internet. Growing up in the swampy low country of South Carolina, I could really relate to the character and I've always been a sucker for a female heroine that uses her wits to get the better of the bad guys. Thanks for sharing!

That's awesome! It's a beautiful place. I got back to visit family there every couple of years.
