About the author
Ellen MacGregor
25 books7 followersEllen MacGregor (1906 - 1954) was an American author, primarily of children's literature. After a varied career in numerous libraries and publishing several well-received children's books, as well as numerous magazine articles, she died in 1954 at the age of 47.
MacGregor's goal was to provide fantasy literature with correct (for the time) scientific facts that would appeal to children. The first appearance of Miss Pickerell, her famous and quirky major character was in a short story, Swept Her into Space, published in Liberty in 1950. She expanded it to book length, published in 1951 as Miss Pickerell Goes to Mars, a science fiction novel for children.
