Summary: "Pollyanna" by Eleanor H. Porter is a novel written during the early 20th century. The story revolves around the character Pollyanna Whittier, an optimistic young girl who approaches life with an unwavering positive attitude, which she refers to as her “glad game.” The narrative begins with her arriving to live with her stern aunt, Miss Polly Harrington, after the death of her father, setting the stage for a tale rich with themes of hope, resilience, and the transformative power of positivity. At the start of the book, we meet Miss Polly, who is uncharacteristically anxious about the arrival of her niece, Pollyanna. The opening chapter paints a picture of Miss Polly as a strict, somewhat unkind woman who feels burdened by the duty of caring for a child she hardly knows. In contrast, Pollyanna is introduced as a bright, cheerful girl who is eager to embrace her new life despite the challenges and the apparent coldness of her aunt. As the narrative unfolds, readers are provided glimpses into the dynamics between Pollyanna and the residents of her new home, offering a taste of the gentle humor and poignant moments that define her exceptional outlook on life.
