Volumes 1 through 27 were issued in picture cover editions with green spines. Early picture cover editions of volumes 1 through 22 have a yellow spine, which was quickly changed to green. Volumes 1 through 22 were originally issued in dust jackets and later as picture cover editions. Later, Julie Tatham gave the writing of both Cherry Ames and Vicki Barr back to Helen Wells. The dust jacket had already been designed for Cruise Nurse when Helen Wells backed out, so Wells is credited as the author rather than Tatham. Helen Wells, was a social worker turned full-time writer, and, like her most famous heroine, an Illinois native who loved New York City. Cherry Ames is still an Army Nurse, this time aloft-as a flight nurse. The United States is still fighting World War II. Julie Campbell Tatham, the original author of the Trixie Belden series, took over writing the Cherry Ames series beginning with volume 9, Cruise Nurse. 5.0 3 Ratings 13.99 13.99 Publisher Description.
