| Summary | "The Wide, Wide World" by Susan Warner is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The story centers around a young girl named Ellen Montgomery, who faces significant challenges following her father's loss of a lawsuit, leading to a family move to Europe for her mother's health. The narrative explores themes of love, sacrifice, and personal growth, highlighting the tender but complex relationship between Ellen and her mother as they navigate their changing lives. At the start of the book, Ellen is engaged in a bittersweet moment of inquiry with her mother about a recent family crisis. The opening chapter vividly sets the tone of the story by portraying Ellen’s innocent curiosity and deep sorrow over impending separation from her mother. As Ellen grapples with both her feelings of fear and an urge to care for her mother, the chapter illustrates not only the love they share but also foreshadows the struggles they will face in the coming narrative. Ellen's determination to be strong in the face of adversity is awakened as they discuss practical matters amidst their emotional turmoil, indicating an evolving maturity that will guide her journey throughout the novel.
