| Summary | "Daybreak: A Story for Girls" by Florence Alice Sitwell is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. The book primarily revolves around the experiences of two sisters, Kate and Frances, who endure and navigate their life in an orphanage, as well as the challenges they face and the relationships they build within and outside that environment. The overarching theme touches upon resilience, love, and the journey toward healing and self-discovery. The story begins with Kate and Frances in an orphanage, where Kate, fiercely protective of her sister, stands against the other children. Following a tragic accident that takes Frances's life, Kate runs away only to face many hardships in London. Eventually, she returns to the orphanage, where she begins to find her place and purpose in life, focusing on caring for other children in need. Their narrative captures their growth from sorrow to joy as the sisters eventually find happiness through helping others, culminating in Kate’s aspiration to become a schoolmistress and Frances's dream of becoming a nurse, highlighting the transformative power of love and altruism in the face of adversity.
