Beatrice E. Peterson

American author of children's books. Although I can find very little information about her anywhere, she seems to have written three children's stories, all with an animal theme. One of these was a pony book and is based on her own daughter and her horse. From the semi-autobiographical tone of the book, I assume the author lived on a farm with a number of horses.
