| Summary | "Sonnie-Boy's People" by James B. Connolly is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a young boy named Greg, affectionately called Sonnie-Boy, and his interactions with his family and a stranger named Mr. Necker who visits their home. The narrative takes place in a backdrop enriched with themes of patriotism and familial bonds, exploring the lives and aspirations of those around Sonnie-Boy in their dynamic environment. The opening of the novel introduces Sonnie-Boy playing by the water and interacting with Mr. Necker, who seems to be charmed by the boy's spirit. As the story unfolds, the focus shifts to Sonnie-Boy's Aunt Marie, who is preparing a battle-flag for the boy's toy ship while reflecting on familial relationships, particularly those of her brother, Mr. Welkie, and the potential future of Sonnie-Boy. The atmosphere is filled with a sense of nostalgia and affection as Greg—Sonnie-Boy's father—returns home, and we witness the warmth of their family life. The interactions hint at underlying themes of duty, aspirations, and the weight of legacy, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of these characters as the plot develops.
