She is the voice of the impish Tinker Bell orbiting around a jar of Peter Pan peanut butter, of Walt Disney's Minnie Mouse, and (on records) of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. One firm planned a commercial featuring an eight-year-old boy, a nine-year-old girl, their mother and grandmother. Gloria did all four characters...
Blessed Mother Goose. Other critics scoff at the nearly total domination of kiddies' books by such animals as Saggy Baggy Elephant, Curious Little Owl, Peter the Sea Trout, Cottontail Rabbit, Brush Goat, Milk Goat, Cuter Tooter (a donkey), Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Little Brown Bear, The Happy Lion, Big Brown Bear, Mister Dog, Shy Little Kitten, Snuggly Bunny, Thidwick, the Big-Hearted Moose.

And when the Confederacy and Reconstruction were done with, Little Rock grew-from 12,000 in 1870 to 26,000 in 1890 and 46,000 in 1910-and became a state-capital leader...
