Summary | "The Eagle's Nest" by S. E. Cartwright is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around a group of siblings, primarily focusing on Madge, Betty, and John West, as they engage in adventurous play while navigating their childhood imaginations and social dynamics. Throughout the opening chapters, the children find themselves excitedly constructing a secret treehouse, dubbed "The Eagle's Nest," where they envision embarking on more escapades. The beginning of the tale introduces readers to the children's world, filled with vibrant discussions and lively interactions, beginning with a humorous classroom scene disrupted by a wasp. Madge, Betty, and John display a mix of curiosity and mischief as they distract themselves from their lessons and eventually abandon their studies for imaginative play. They dream up plans for their treehouse in a beech tree by the boundary wall, which ultimately leads to their encounter with a mysterious boy named Lewis Brand. As the children discuss their grand ideas and how to achieve them, the narrative sets the stage for themes of childhood daring and camaraderie, intertwined with hints of mystery surrounding the enigmatic Mrs. Howard, who lives beyond the wall.
