Title: Cherry Ames, Senior Nurse
Author: Helen Wells
Publisher: Grosset & Dunlap, Publishers, New York
Published: 1944
Binding: Hardcover
Language: English
Number of Pages: 217
Catalogs: Nursing History, Juvenile, Mystery
Description: Brown textured paper-covered boards with black text on spine and illustration of Cherry Ames on front board. Dust-jacket in fair condition, with some tearing, and front flap is separated from the cover. Back of dust-jacket is wrinkled. Spine is nicked, and there are a few ink markings on the dust-jacket spine. Light wear to edges. Slight discoloration to page top-edges. Interior is unmarked. Cherry Ames is the central character in a series of 27 mystery novels with hospital settings published by Grosset & Dunlap between 1943 and 1968. Helen Wells (1910-1986) wrote volumes 1–9 and 17–27. In this volume, Cherry realizes that "a senior really must be a little more sober and responsible;" perhaps she should have warned the head nurse right away about the rabbit that had been smuggled into the pediatric ward. But the children had enjoyed it so! As seniors, Cherry and her friends each adopt a probationer (first-year student) to mentor. Why did her probie have to be dull and sullen Mildred Burnham? Dr. Joe Fortune has discovered a new way to synthesize penicillin, which could make a life or death difference on the battle front. But how did word of it become common knowledge around Spencer? Cherry discovers that Mildred has more to her than she thought as together they face the dangerous thieves who have stolen Dr. Joe's formula. From the nursing history collection of Sarah Abrams. Hardcover, good condition. 217 pages, 12mo.
