Project Gutenberg 2004-01-01 Public domain in the USA. 70 Unknown Little Sarah Reading ease score: 80.7 (6th grade). Easy to read. Internet Archive; University of Florida, David Garcia, and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team "Little Sarah" by Unknown is a children's poem that was likely written in the 19th century. This charming piece of literature focuses on the theme of perseverance as a young girl named Sarah embarks on a quest to prepare a Johnny-cake for her grandmother. The delightful simplicity and rhythmic nature of the poem make it an engaging read for young audiences, emphasizing the challenges of fulfilling a seemingly straightforward task. In the poem, Sarah eagerly seeks to fulfill her grandmother's request for a Johnny-cake by running from place to place in search of ingredients. She discovers that the cupboard is bare and that she must venture to the miller, the cornfield, and the farmer to gather what she needs. Each encounter humorously highlights the obstacles she faces—no meal, no corn, and the laughter of the farmer when she asks for grain without the earth being ploughed. Ultimately, Sarah learns that patience and effort are necessary to achieve her goal, culminating in a sense of accomplishment when she successfully prepares the cake after much determination. The poem beautifully illustrates a child's journey of problem-solving and the rewards of hard work.
