The Story of Mrs. Tubbs (1923)-- A tiny tale, apparently written for a younger audience than that targeted by the Dolittle books, Mrs. Tubbs resembles those better-known books in that it, too, is a story of animal-human friendship. And it's a simple story: evicted from her home, the little old lady of the title is cared for and finally saved by the dog, duck, and pig to whom she has always shown kindness.
