About Author

Garth Williams

Garth Montgomery Williams (April 16, 1912 – May 8, 1996) was an American artist who came to prominence in the American postwar era as an illustrator of children's books. Many of the books he illustrated have become classics of American children's literature. In Stuart Little, Charlotte's Web, and in the Little House series of books of Laura Ingalls Wilder, Williams['s] drawings have become inseparable from how we think of those stories. In that respect ... Williams['s] work belongs in the same class as Sir John Tenniel's drawings for Alice in Wonderland, or Ernest Shepard's illustrations for Winnie the Pooh.

If that isn’t enough, he suspects he might be falling for Gwen, the shy checkout girl who may be an even bigger mess than he is. It couldn’t get any worse. Until it does. When Gwen comes to him one night scared and desperate for help, Worth discovers just how far he’s willing to go to protect and serve. The next thing he knows, he’s driving a stolen car with a corpse in the trunk, a pistol in the glove box, and no way to turn back. Everything he doesn’t know could get them killed. And things haven’t even begun to get messy yet....

Pussy Willow

I added this same description to the Golden Book Edition page for this book. I had this book as a child around 1953 and 1954. It was in a picture book format about 10" x 12" and a 1/4" thick. I have looked for it for years. As an adult, I realized the story took the kitten through the seasons of the year looking for her lost pussywillows. All I remembered from it as a child, was the closing line: "Anything you lose is always where you find it." She had been a kitten who fell asleep playing underneath some pussywillow branches in bloom. When she awoke they were gone, and she went looking for them. The pictures and story took her through summer, fall, and winter, until she fell asleep from exhaustion. By this time it was spring, and when she awoke, she was underneath the blooming pussywillow branches. At least that's the way I remember it.
