| Summary | "Little Grandmother" by Sophie May is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. It follows the early life of Patience Lyman, affectionately known as Patty, who ends up as Grandma Parlin in her later years. The narrative is set in a small New England town during the early 1800s, exploring Patty’s adventures and the values of her family and community, providing readers with heartfelt lessons about childhood, morality, and growth. At the start of the story, the author introduces Grandma Parlin as a newborn, just entering the world during New Year’s Day in 1800. Surrounded by her loving family, particularly her mother, the scene sets the stage for a life filled with joy, challenges, and moral lessons. As we meet various characters, like the nurse Siller and family members, the narrative hints at important historical events, such as the recent death of George Washington, impacting the community’s sentiments. The opening portion establishes the tone and themes of family and societal expectations, indicating that Patty’s journey will be interwoven with historical context, personal growth, and familial love, while providing a glimpse into a simpler yet complex time.
