Eulalie Osgood Grover (1873 - 1958) was forn in Mantorville, Minnesota. She created a series of reading primers for young readers featuring two little girls named Mollie and May, whose faces were completely hidden by large sunbonnets. The Sunbonnet Babies Primer was a huge success and was widely accepted in public schools throughout the United states. In 1905, Miss Grover published a second series, The Overall Boys, which introduced little boy characters.
