Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Corner House Girls at School" by Grace Brooks Hill is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story focuses on the Kenway sisters—Ruth, Agnes, Tess, and Dot—as they navigate new experiences at school and their interactions with the characters in their neighborhood, particularly a white-haired boy named Neale O'Neil. Themes of friendship, family, and the challenges of growing up are likely to emerge as the plot unfolds. At the start of the book, readers are introduced to the Kenway sisters and their new life at the old Corner House. The excitement of a new school year is palpable as Agnes's mischief leads to humorous predicaments, such as acquiring a goat named Billy Bumps. The early chapters also showcase the budding dynamism between the girls and their new friend Neale, who appears to have a mysterious past. The narrative combines light-hearted banter with moments of insight into each character's personality as they face childhood challenges together, setting the stage for further adventures.
