According to Wikipedia: "Percy Keese Fitzhugh (September 7, 1876 - July 5, 1950) is an American author of nearly 100 books for children and young adults... Fitzhugh's Scouting based books were very popular with children and adults. His characters became so real to his readers that it was not uncommon for Percy to receive fan mail addressed to the characters themselves. Fitzhugh's contribution to the growth and popularity of the Scouting movement can never be measured, but it is widely held that many thousands of boys joined the Scouts because of his writings. His "Pee-Wee Harris" character is still being featured in a comic strip in Boys' Life, the official magazine of the Boy Scouts of America, almost sixty years after Fitzhugh's death."
