Book Description
Harriet M. Welsch has just received the best news of her 11th year—Ole Golly is coming back! Harriet can still remember how sad she was when her beloved nanny married George Waldenstein and moved away. But the circumstances of Ole Golly’s return remain unclear. Where is George Waldenstein? With Mr. and Mrs. Welsch living in France for three months, Sport confiding that he has a crush on a girl at school, and the arrival of a mysterious new neighbor who’s going to require a whole lot of spying, Harriet already has her hands full. Then she overhears Ole Golly saying she’s innocent—but innocent of what? Harriet the Spy is on the case and ready to help Ole Golly in any way she can.
From Publishers Weekly
With the approval of Louise Fitzhugh's (author of Harriet the Spy) estate, Ericson revisits the life of Harriet M. Welsch and the executors' trust was well placed. An author's note reports that Ericson became a fan when this self-styled young spy first appeared in 1964, and her affection for the feisty character comes through in this new misadventure. Even the young detective's fascination with words and her inclination to write her notebook entries in CAPITAL LETTERS endures. When Harriet's parents leave Manhattan to spend three months in Paris, her former nanny, "Ole Golly," returns from Montreal (where she had moved with her new husband) to stay with the soon-to-turn 12-year-old. Though Harriet's mother warns her that Ole Golly has asked that no one mention her husband's name, the curious sleuth sets out to discover what transpired in Montreal. Harriet, while eavesdropping, believes she hears Ole Golly announce that she's innocent, which leads the girl to conclude that the nanny accidentally killed her husband. Meanwhile, another mystery percolates in the townhouse across the street, where husband-and-wife doctors appear to be keeping a girl captive. As Harriet doggedly attempts to crack these cases, her processing of misinformation makes for some comical scenarios. Although the novel does not plunge directly into the mystery (as Fitzhugh's works did) and a few sluggish subplots including Harriet's creation of a timeline of her life bog down the pace, overall Ericson has shaped a spirited tale and gives her follow-up to Fitzhugh's novels a fittingly timeless feel.
From School Library Journal
Ericson has written a worthy companion to Louise Fitzhugh's Harriet the Spy (Harper & Row, 1964; o.p.; Delacorte, 2000). The irrepressible heroine and many of her cronies return in a story that's rich in mystery, wry humor, wonderful wordplay, and an ending that suggests more to come. The action begins the summer before seventh grade when Harriet's parents announce that they're going to Paris for a few months and that her former nurse, Ole Golly, will return from Montreal to take care of her. But Ole Golly's presence gives Harriet less comfort than she expected because the woman is remote and sad, owing somehow, Harriet is sure, to her disastrous marriage to Mr. Waldenstein, which the girl is forbidden to mention. Also, Ole Golly's activities are cause for considerable speculation. Why does she make regular visits to the doctors across the street, carrying a small bag with her each time? When she finally figures out the truth-that Ole Golly is pregnant-Harriet tracks down Mr. Waldenstein and sets up a dramatic reunion that makes for a happy ending. A parallel plot introduces a quirky new character, Rosarita Sauvage aka Yolanda Montezuma aka Zoe Carpaccio aka Annie Smith. Ericson has perfectly captured the voice and pacing of Fitzhugh's original novel in a seamless rendering of a fresh, enjoyable story for today's readers. A few anachronisms and some minor missteps in chronology-here Sport's father has remarried during the summer while in Sport (Delacorte, 1979; o.p.; 2001) his marriage takes place after school begins-don't detract from this truly welcome publishing event.
From Booklist
In 1964, Louise Fitzhugh's Harriet the Spy took the children's book world by storm with its brutally honest heroine and her less-than-perfect parents. Now, nearly 40 years later, Ericson, with permission from the Fitzhugh estate, offers fans another chance to savor one of their favorite characters. This story begins at the close of The Long Secret (1965) as Harriet is preparing to start seventh grade at the Gregory School. She learns that her parents are leaving to spend three months in Paris and that Ole Golly (minus Mr. Waldenstein, who is to be "expunged" from our memories) will return from Montreal to look after her. Harriet is ecstatic to learn that her dear friend is returning, but things have changed in the months Ole Golly has been away. Her caretaker now seems sad and tired, refuses to talk about her recent past, makes mysterious trips to a doctor across the street, and is overheard speaking on the phone about her "innocence." Naturally, Harriet's curiosity and her spying talents help her uncover Ole Golly's secrets. Ericson has done a commendable job of weaving background details and new back-story material into her book. The story can stand alone, but it fits in well with the originals, which still seem fresh and accessible to today's audiences, and Ericson's depictions of Harriet, her parents, and Ole Golly are right on the mark; the characters look and sound like Fitzhugh's own creations. One small quibble--while this story overlaps time periods with Sport (1979), who features prominently in Ericson's story, Ericson never refers to Sport's kidnapping, a pivotal part of the earlier book. There are bound to be purists who object to anyone else taking over Fitzhugh's characters, but this story is a worthy successor that kids will definitely enjoy. |
