More Information
Jane Shaw, born in Glasgow 1910, was a Scottish children's writer
best known and remembered for her Susan series. It is fair to say that she has
been somewhat eclipsed by the likes of Enid Blyton and Brent Dyer et al, perhaps
somewhat unfairly. The first editions are collectable and are of value, but not
as expensive as the two mentioned above. This makes collecting her books a more
feasable option for many. Collectors should be aware of the Seagull series, they
are reprints and of no value beyond their readability. These editions can often
be seen being passed off as 1sts on online auction sites.
