"The Big Nightcap Letters" by Aunt Fanny is a collection of children's stories written in the early 19th century. The book presents a series of letters from Aunt Fanny to her young readers, teaching them moral lessons through engaging narratives. The stories feature various characters, particularly focusing on children and their adventures, emphasizing virtues like kindness, generosity, and the importance of faith. At the start of the book, children gather for their usual bedtime routine and discover that Aunt Fanny has written them individual stories. The first story tells of Carl, a kind boy who witnesses a wounded dove and, instead of seeking something bright and shiny as a prize, brings forth his compassion, illustrating that true beauty lies in kindness. This sets the tone for the other letters that promise to impart similar valuable lessons, combining entertainment with moral instruction in a manner that aims to captivate and engage young imaginations.
