Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Wouldbegoods" by E. Nesbit is a novel published in 1901. After their garden adventures go disastrously wrong, the Bastable children are sent to spend summer in the countryside at Moat House. There, they earnestly attempt to perform good deeds—but their well-intentioned efforts consistently backfire with unintended and chaotic results. Narrated by young Oswald Bastable himself, this sequel follows the spirited siblings as they discover that being good is far more complicated than they imagined.
