| Summary | "NAN SHERWOOD AT PINE CAMP; Or, The Old Lumberman's Secret" by Annie Roe Carr is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the life of Nan Sherwood, a spirited and thoughtful girl, who navigates the challenges of her family's financial situation and the dynamics of friendship, especially with her classmate Bess Harley. As Nan learns of the impending closure of her father's mill and the economic hardships that may follow, the narrative hints at themes of empathy, resilience, and the pursuit of education. At the start of the book, we meet Nan and Bess as they encounter a yellow poster announcing the mill shutdown, triggering discussions about the harsh realities faced by mill workers and their families. Nan's concern for the affected individuals starkly contrasts with Bess's more privileged viewpoint, establishing an underlying tension in their friendship. Subsequently, we are introduced to Nan's home life, including her supportive and cheerful mother, Mrs. Sherwood, and her father, who is worried about future employment. After a dramatic skating incident where Nan helps save a drowning boy, the family's fortunes shift when a letter reveals a potential inheritance from a distant relative in Scotland. As the Sherwoods prepare for an unexpected journey, they discuss how this wealth could improve their lives, while the question of Nan's care arises, leading to her eventual travel to Pine Camp with her Uncle Henry. This opening sets the stage for a story rich in character development and social themes. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
