| Summary | "Little Folks of North America" by Mary Hazelton Blanchard Wade is a collection of children's stories written in the early 20th century. The book explores the lives of children from various cultural backgrounds across North America, touching upon their unique environments and traditions. Each chapter focuses on different groups such as the Inuit, Native Americans, and early European settlers, providing readers with insights into the diverse experiences of young people in this vast land. The opening of the book begins by recounting the historical context of North America, referencing Christopher Columbus's discovery and the diverse tribes of indigenous people, including the Indians and Eskimos. It emphasizes the transition to European settlers, who originally lived near the coast but eventually spread inland, impacting the indigenous cultures. Following this, the narrative introduces the first chapter about Icelandic children, depicting their joyful lives despite the harsh climate and recounting tales of early settlers, their homes, and the natural wonders of Iceland like geysers and glaciers. The opening sets the stage for a broader exploration of children’s lives in various North American regions, highlighting themes of resilience and adaptability.
