"Uncle Rutherford's Nieces: A Story for Girls" by Joanna H. Mathews is a novel written in the late 19th century. This story centers around a group of children—particularly, two sisters named Allie and Daisy, along with their friend Jim, who is a young boy with aspirations of helping others and becoming a lawyer. The narrative explores their youthful adventures, including Jim's plans to run a peanut business to help another pair of disabled children, showcasing themes of kindness, ambition, and the challenges of childhood. At the start of the book, readers are introduced to the children at their summer home, tackling an arithmetic problem that stumps them. This light-hearted scene sets the tone for their playful interactions, highlighting Jim's ambitious dreams for the future, particularly his desire to own a business that aids disabled friends. The opening captures the innocence and camaraderie of childhood while foreshadowing the social lessons and adventures that will unfold throughout their summer days. Meanwhile, the arrival of Uncle Rutherford and Aunt Emily hints at broader family dynamics and potential story developments involving mentorship and guidance.
