- catalog description "When Francelia (McWilliams) Butler was a young child, Harriet Taylor Upton, suffragist and chair of the Republican National Committee, visited her family. Seeing that Francelia had an unhappy family life, Upton corresponded with her and sent her stories until Upton's death in 1945. Butler graduated from Oberlin College, and in the 1930s lived in Paris. She wrote for the Paris Herald and married newsroom staffer Jerome Butler in 1939. They returned to the United States in 1940, and had a daughter. In the early 1960s Butler, by then widowed, earned a doctorate in 17th century English literature from the University of Virginia. Since 1975 she has been on the faculty of the University of Connecticut, where she has championed the study of children's literature. The author of The Lucky Piece, An Autobiographical Novel (1984), and Skipping Around the World: The Ritual Nature of Folk Rhymes (1989), Butler helped found the Modern Language Association's Division on Children's Literature; the Children's Literature Foundation; Children's Literature, a journal; the Foundation for Contributed Thought on Peace; International Peace Games; and the Connecticut League against Age Discrimination.".
