Aunt Mary has lived most of her life in a pretty suburban villa left by her father, a respected London merchant. When her sister’s household falls into disorder through peevishness and spoiled children, she steps in with patience and good sense, and a lost brooch, a disappointment, a friend in need and a trip to the Zoological Gardens all become lessons in character.
A quiet Victorian moral tale for girls, typical of the Sunday-school fiction of its day. Download the free EPUB.
