83 books25 followersMargaret Marshall Saunders CBE was a Canadian author.
Saunders was born in the village of Milton, Queens County, Nova Scotia. She spent most of her childhood in Berwick, Nova Scotia where her father served as Baptist minister. Saunders is most famous for her novel Beautiful Joe. Originally published under the pseudonym Marshall Saunders, it is a story narrated by a dog who has had a difficult puppyhood with many obstacles including a cruel owner. When the book was published in 1894, both it and its subject received worldwide attention. It was the first Canadian book to sell over a million copies, and by the late 1930s had sold over seven million copies worldwide.
In 1934, Saunders was made a Commander of the British Empire (C.B.E.), at the time her country's highest civilian honor. Together with fellow Canadian author, Lucy Maud Montgomery, Saunders co-founded the Maritime branch of the Canadian Women's Press Club.
Following the success of Beautiful Joe, Saunders wrote more than twenty other stories, a number of which provided social commentary on such things as the abolition of child labor, slum clearance, and the improvement of playground facilities.
Saunders died in 1947 in Toronto, Ontario where she had lived for a number of years.

Oh dear. Pure sugar and schmaltz. Or how a toddler turned a bad boy into an angel by lisping babytalk at him. Oh, and getting sick. I can't figure out how falling down and striking her head gave her a fever bad enough to reduce her to skin and bone in less than a week, but then I don't write heartstring-wrenching tearjerkers. If I did, I'd try my darndest to do a better job than this.
The intro tells us that Saunders (author of Beautiful Joe) wrote this...pamplet? Long short story? Novelette? Yes, novelette...so that sales would help a cause, but coyly doesn't mention which cause it was. Probably temperance. Saunders favoured causes it seems.
Dreadful, glutinous sentimentality drips from every page. Fortunately they are few in number.
