Hi,

Could you please tell me who is this author, Elfrida Vipont? Apparently my search showed that she was an author like Enid Blyton for chilldren books, however, not as popular.
My question is that I have two of her books, one signed as "Elfrida Vipont" and the other book, under her pseudonym name of "Charles Vipont" and signed under this name.
Are such books valuable? Also, why did she have to write under a male name for books for boys? Enid Blyton did not do so. Was is because of her Quaker religion?

She wrote under a male name for boys so they would be more inclined to read the book. She also wrote under her married name of E.V. Foulds.

Go to your public library's reference desk to find out if her signed books are worth money.
