- Summary:
- "It is every girl's ambition at one time or another to wear the crisp uniform of a nurse. The many opportunities for service, for adventure, for romance make a nurses' career a glamorous one. Certainly, girls everywhere love to read stories in which a nurse is the heroine. At lease a million girls already know and admire Cherry Ames, and have laughed over her pranks and thrilled over her gay adventures and wept over her problems."--[P] 2 of cover.
