Kay Thompson’s infamous Eloise lives on in a newly published book “Eloise Takes a Bawth.” Thompson had just about finished the book in the late 1960s but decided not to have it printed. She also, reportedly in “a dramatic fit of pique”, decided that none of the Eloise books except for the first one should be in print. Her estate has since decided otherwise and reissued them all. The “Bawth” text has been reworked and original illustrator Hilary Knight has redone the drawings as well. Also, Julie Andrews will be portraying Eloise’s Nanny in two movies for ABC-TV/Disney. As you certainly remember, Andrews has already taken on incorrigible children for Disney before.
