This is the true story of Mary Washington. When she wasn’t worrying about being poor, she was poking her nose in George’s business, baking gingerbread, and smoking a pipe.

"Yes she was demanding and insecure but George rose above it, and managed her. An important lesson."

    " Not up the usual Jean Fritz standards. I read this book aloud to my second graders. I probably won't do that again, though I will have the book available for students to read. "

    " We didn't care for this book at all. It made her out to be quite spoiled and demanding, when she was a woman of good character. Fritz seems to have an anti-Christian tone in some of her books. (This review was written by Mom.) "
