How could those tiny little untrained claws keep their hold on that big round, slippery shaft, and if the carriage started down they would surely go under the wheels or under the feet of that merciless little grey mare. But the little fledglings were in better hands than they knew, for, with the exceptions of Betsy, Doctor, and Black-and-white, every living thing at Oakdene was kind to every other living thing.

Ruth Ogden was the pen name of Fannie Ogden Ide, a late 19th century American children's book author. Several of her books, such as A Loyal Little Red-Coat (1890) and Loyal Hearts and True (1899), are based in part on historical events. Critics often used the word "charming" to describe her books, and one critic praised her for "purity of tone, animation of spirit, and good English style". Her books were illustrated by F.C. Gordon, George T. Tobin, Henry Alexander Ogden, and W. Rainey, among others.
