Description

Harriette Newell Woods Baker (pen names, Mrs. Madeline Leslie and Aunt Hattie; August 19, 1815 – April 26, 1893) was an American author of books for children, and editor. Baker's career as an author began when she was about 30 years old. She devoted herself successfully to novels; but after about 15 years, she wrote popular religious literature. Her most famous book, Tim, the Scissors Grinder sold half a million copies, and was translated into several languages. Baker published under the pen-name "Mrs. Madeline Leslie," about 200 moral and religious tales. She wrote under her own name or initials, and under that of "Aunt Hattie." She wrote chiefly for the young. She was still writing in 1893 when she died.
