She was probably best remembered by young readers of her day for The Little Maid's Historical Series (which comprises twenty-four books, starting with A Little Maid of Province Town). She has written at least sixty published books. She went to public schools in Maine and Massachusetts, but was also tutored privately. She was a Republican in 1936, and a supporter of women's suffrage. She was also a member of D. A. R. (Tea Party Chapter, Boston), and the New England Women's Club, Boston. Curtis was a salaried contributor to Youth's Companion.

Excerpt from A Little Maid of Massachusetts Colony The first Anne Nelson story was A Little Maid of Province Town, which told how the little Cape Cod girl's father went away to fight for the colonies, how she went to live with the Stoddards, how she escaped perils from Indians and wolves, made an unexpected trip to Boston, and carried an important message for the colonial army. The girls and boys who made acquaintance in that book with Anne and with Amanda and Amos Cary will be glad to read here how Amos won his heart's desire, - to go a long voyage from the harbor of Province Town Anne's journey with the Indians, her imprisonment in the house in the woods, and her escape; how she and Rose Freeman discovered Aunt Anne Rose on the happy trip in Boston, and how Anne helped to capture an English privateer, will hold the attention of young readers, and, incidentally, show them something of the times and history of Revolutionary days in New England.

Excerpt from A Little Maid of Old Philadelphia Ruth Pennell and Winifred Merrill lived in Philadelphia. The city had been for some time in the hands of General Howe and the British army. Ruth's father was with Washington at Valley Forge, and the little girls were ardent supporters of the American cause, and admirers of the gallant young Frenchman, the Marquis de Lafayette. Children in 1778 were much like those of today, and Ruth and her friends, eager as they were for the war to end successfully, were fond of dolls and pets, and games and little plays.
