| Summary | "The Children on the Top Floor" by Nina Rhoades is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around two main characters, Betty and Jack Randall, who live a modest life in an apartment building. Betty is a caring older sister to her little brother Jack, who is a cripple and unable to walk. The book explores themes of friendship, compassion, and the struggles of families facing hardship. The opening of the novel introduces readers to Betty, who is purchasing cream cakes for her brother at a local bakery. After a mishap involving her cakes, she encounters Winifred Hamilton, a girl living in the same apartment building. As they talk, Betty reveals about Jack’s condition, which deepens Winifred's compassion for the siblings. The narrative quickly establishes the dynamic of their lives—Betty's unwavering love for Jack and her desire to improve his situation. As the story unfolds, it hints at their different backgrounds and foreshadows potential connections between the Hamiltons and the Randalls, setting a foundation for themes of kindness and community support amid their struggles.
