Summary: "St. Nicholas Magazine for Boys and Girls, Vol. 5, January 1878, No. 3" by Various is a compilation of stories and articles targeted towards children, written in the late 19th century. This issue features narratives rich in morality and adventure, including tales set in historical contexts and fanciful stories tailored to engage young readers' imaginations. The central themes revolve around courage, kindness, and the importance of community, with various characters like the stone-carver's family and a young boy named Gottlieb facing hardships and learning valuable life lessons. The opening of this volume introduces "The Ravens and The Angels," a poignant story about the struggles of a young mother named Magdalis and her two children, Gottlieb and Lenichen, following the death of their father. They live in poverty near a grand cathedral, where Magdalis teaches her children about faith and perseverance despite their grim circumstances. As Christmas approaches, Gottlieb plans to surprise Lenichen with a crust of bread, symbolizing their hardship yet hope for the future. Their story intertwines with themes of divine providence, as they encounter old Hans, who may hold the key to changing their fate. The narrative sets up a touching exploration of the family's trials and the potential blessings that kindness and faith may bring during the festive season.
