"A Dear Little Girl at School" by Amy Ella Blanchard is a children's novel written in the early 20th century.

Set against a backdrop of wholesome countryside life, Edna is characterized by her inquisitive nature and thoughtful disposition, particularly in her interactions with her cousin Ben and her new friend, Nettie. The opening of the story introduces Edna and Cousin Ben, who are enjoying a quiet afternoon on the porch while preparing for a ride Ben plans to take the next day. As they engage in playful banter, the reader learns about Edna's recent transition from daily school attendance to a new arrangement, where she will stay with relatives for part of the week. The narrative quickly evolves to depict Edna's adventurous spirit, especially when she decides to venture out into the woods to protect Ben from potential hazing by older boys at college, showcasing her determination and bravery.
