Summary "Mary Wollstonecraft's Original Stories" by Mary Wollstonecraft is a collection of children's stories written in the late 18th century, with a strong focus on moral education and the nature of goodness. The book features Mrs. Mason, a nurturing figure who teaches two young girls, Mary and Caroline, through various lessons about kindness, animal welfare, and the importance of virtue in human life. The stories are intended to provide a framework for understanding moral principles while also appealing to child readers. At the start of the book, we are introduced to the context of the children’s upbringing, particularly the neglect they have faced in their education. Mrs. Mason, a dedicated caregiver, takes it upon herself to guide them through lessons involving the treatment of animals and the exploration of moral values. The opening scenes detail a spring morning walk, where Mrs. Mason teaches the children about the responsibilities and kindness they should extend to living creatures around them, confronting their earlier cruelty. Through discussions about empathy and ethical behavior towards animals, the story sets a tone for the lessons the children will learn throughout their time with Mrs. Mason.
