Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Harper's Young People, October 10, 1882" by Various is a collection of children's literature written in the late 19th century. This publication features a variety of stories, educational articles, and illustrations aimed at young readers, making it a rich source of entertainment and learning. The topics range from amusing adventures to informative pieces on science and nature, reflecting the values and interests of the time. The opening of the collection presents a delightful narrative by William O. Stoddard about a young girl, Katy Chittenden, who reports that her family’s cows have wandered into a neighbor's pasture. This prompts her father, Deacon Chittenden, and her brother William to investigate the incident, which unfolds into a humorous and somewhat chaotic series of events involving their new cow, local boys, and the antics of their livestock. The story sets a lighthearted tone, inviting readers into a world of rural life, community, and the simple yet engaging adventures of childhood.
