What a surprise to learn that Garis, whose "Uncle Wiggily" series I loved as a child, was also the author of the "Tom Swift" series and the "Bobbsy Twins" as well!

Wotta guy! God rest his soul.

We have been reading inherited Uncle Wiggily books for several months. The illustrator of all these books is Iang Campbell. I can find little about him from a Google search. Does anyone know anything?

I had the "Uncle Wiggily" game from MB as a child in the early 60s. I have no idea when it was first published, but it's older than 1989 as claimed in the article.
