Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Little Colonel's Knight Comes Riding" by Annie F. Johnston is a novel written in the early 20th century. This charming installment in the Little Colonel series follows the adventures of young Gay Melville, who has returned to Lloydsboro Valley for the summer. The story encapsulates themes of friendship, youthful romance, and the inviting atmosphere of a close-knit community. At the start of the tale, we are introduced to a June morning in Kentucky, where Alex Shelby, a medical student, is drawn into the woods by the smell of honeysuckle. He discovers that the charming Lindsey Cabin, which has been abandoned, now has new inhabitants. He is particularly taken by a girl named Gay, seen precariously climbing a ladder to hang a mirror. The narrative unfolds as Alex and his friends, including the spirited Lloyd and Kitty, rally to welcome the new residents while navigating their own budding romances and friendships, setting the stage for charming interactions and social engagements throughout the summer.
