Amanda M. Douglas’s A Little Girl in Old New York opens her beloved series of historical fiction for young readers. The story follows Hanny, a warm-hearted girl growing up in New York City in the mid-nineteenth century, painting a vivid and affectionate picture of neighbourhoods, customs, and daily life now long vanished.
Douglas brings a genuine fondness for her setting and characters, making the books feel like a loving look through a family photo album from another era. Readers who enjoy Laura Ingalls Wilder or similar historical series for children will find much to treasure here. Download the free EPUB and visit old New York with Hanny.
