Hi Sharron,

In Contemporary_Authors (Thomson Gale, 2004), under "Writings By the Author"
:

(With Michael Frith, under joint pseudonym Rosetta Stone): Because_a_Little_Bug_Went_Ka-Choo!, illustrated by Frith, Beginner Books
(New York, NY), 1975.


Delightfully, it appears, author and illustrator enjoyed the "Rosetta Stone" pseudonym, together (and for one book). However, I must admit that I didn't continue my search and can't verify it with other sources at this time. I saw this only in CA. Hope I haven't given misinformation in haste and while
"on vacation".

Sincerely, Meg Rothstein Madison, Wisconsin
