| Summary | "Happy Pollyooly: The Rich Little Poor Girl" by Edgar Jepson is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers on a bright and resourceful young girl named Pollyooly, who becomes involved in a series of comedic and adventurous scenarios, including substituting for a young noblewoman in a scheme devised by the Duchess of Osterley. The narrative promises to weave themes of deception, loyalty, and the elevation of an unconventional heroine through her youthful exploits. The opening portion introduces Pollyooly, a thirteen-year-old housekeeper to the Honourable John Ruffin, who is preparing to depart for Buda-Pesth on matters regarding his friend Esmeralda, a dancer. While serving breakfast, Pollyooly's loyalty and curiosity surface as she learns about Esmeralda's situation with a foreign nobleman. As Ruffin contemplates what to do with Pollyooly and her younger brother, known as the Lump, during his absence, he arranges for them to stay with Hilary Vance, an artist and friend. The discourse between Ruffin and Vance sets a tone of lighthearted complexities, coupled with the suggestion that Pollyooly may soon find herself embroiled in an array of amusing challenges that await her as the story unfolds.
