E-text prepared by Joel Erickson, Christine Gehring, Dave Macfarlane, and Project Gutenberg Distributed Proofreaders "The King's Daughter and Other Stories for Girls" by Various is a collection of moral tales written in the early 20th century. The stories are designed to impart important lessons to young girls, often featuring themes of virtue, kindness, and the importance of domestic skills. Through various characters, including a princess and everyday girls, the narratives explore different aspects of life, teaching values relevant to personal development and social interactions. At the start of the collection, the opening story introduces a young girl named Emma, who expresses a longing to be a princess to avoid household chores. Her mother uses this as a teaching moment, presenting the sobering history of Marie Antoinette, the king's daughter, who despite her royal status faced dire challenges, including imprisonment. As the story unfolds, Emma learns valuable lessons about responsibility and the significance of skills that contribute to one's personal well-being, regardless of social standing. This portion showcases how the book blends fictional narratives with historical contexts to convey moral teachings effectively.
