Summary "The Hickory Limb" by Parker Fillmore is a novel written in the early 20th century that explores themes of childhood, gender roles, and rebellion. The story revolves around the spirited character of Margery Blair, showcasing her struggles against the restrictions placed upon her as a girl in a conventional society. In the narrative, Margery's desire to assert herself leads her to venture into an adventure where she challenges social norms by going swimming with boys, a bold act that causes a stir among her siblings and friends. As she relishes the thrill of swimming, Margery experiences a clash with societal expectations when she is reprimanded for her behavior. Throughout the book, the reader witnesses Margery's evolution as she grapples with her identity and the consequences of her actions.
