Publisher's summary

School can be kind of scary for someone who is just starting, but Betsy is trying very hard to be brave. It turns out that school is not what she thought it would be: school can be fun! She makes lots of new friends, her teacher is really nice, and the classroom is bright and sunny. She learns something new all the time and throughout the school year there are many surprising adventures waiting for her.

Author Carolyn Haywood has penned more than 40 books, including this American classic, in which children have found familiar characters and predicaments.

great story for young readers but missing chapters

What a fun story for young listeners! We loved the chapters but sadly it stops at chapters 8. There are 2 chapters that are missing!! chapters 9 , circuses are fun and chapters 10, Betsy Goes to the Farm and Tells Old Ned Some News. That was a bit of a shock and disappointment to my young readers/listeners who were following along in their books.

Missing Chapters

This is a delightful story; however, the printed book includes 10 chapters and this version contains only chapters 1-8.

Not unabridged

It says at the beginning of the recording that it is unabridged. It isn’t. It’s missing the last 2 chapters as othered have said. The story is wonderful and the narrator is okay. Where are the last two chapters?

Betsy

I like the story, but the last two chapters in the printed book are not recorded.
