To these followed "Real Folks" and "The Other Girls", published by Osgood & Co., in 1872-73. After this followed "Sights and Insights", detailing the experiences of a party traveling in Europe. In the winter of 1877, Whitney compiled a cookbook entitled "Just How", and in the spring of 1879, she published her story entitled "Odd or Even" with the firm of Osgood & Co. After the issue of "Odd or Even", Messrs. Houghton & Osgood, having previously purchased of Loring the plates of all Whitney's other books, prepared a uniform edition of all her works. From time to time, Whitney published poetry in the "Atlantic Monthly", or other papers; these were collected in a volume entitled "Pansies," published by Osgood & Co. in 1872.
The 1905, "New International Encyclopedia" expressed the opinion that with "Hitherto" (1869) "the period of her best work ends." Whitney also patented a set of alphabet blocks for children.
