Beschreibung

In "Little Bessie, the Careless Girl, or, Squirrels, Nuts, and Water-Cresses," Josephine Franklin embarks on a vibrant exploration of childhood innocence and the complexities of growing up. Through the adventures of Bessie, a spirited and carefree girl, Franklin employs a whimsical writing style characterized by playful language and vivid imagery, inviting readers into a world where nature and childhood imagination intertwine. The narrative serves as a reflection on the simple joys and the occasional misadventures that define youth, while also subtly critiquing the societal expectations placed on children in the late 19th century. Josephine Franklin, a prominent figure in children's literature during her time, was deeply influenced by her own experiences as a caretaker and educator. Her passion for nurturing young minds and her keen observations of nature are apparent in Bessie'Äôs escapades, where squirrels and water-cresses serve not just as backdrop but as integral parts of the narrative. Franklin's understanding of childhood emotions and her ability to articulate them through engaging stories stem from her background in pedagogical practices and her love for the outdoors. This enchanting tale is highly recommended for readers of all ages who cherish the ethos of childhood exploration and the delightful chaos it often entails. Franklin'Äôs work serves as a gentle reminder of the beauty found in simplicity and the importance of embracing one's natural surroundings, making it a timeless treasure suitable for both personal enjoyment and educational purposes.

    A sweet middle-grade title about getting lost in a big family and unlikely friendship.  Almost-twelve-year-old Sunday Fowler is a middle-of-the-middle child, and it's the absolute worst. Her sisters say she's too young. Her brothers say she's too old. And her parents remember the dog's name more often than they remember hers. But standing out is hard work when you have to help repair an old library and make sure your siblings don't steal your new best friend—or ruin all your plans. Then Sunday finds something in the library's basement that might make her so famous no one will forget her name ever again. But revealing her finding means stirring up secrets that some people in the town hoped to keep buried. Sunday must decide if some things—loyalty, trust, friendship—are worth more than her name in the headlines. A Summer of Sundays is a charming, funny celebration of family and finding friendship in unexpected places.
