| Summary | "Polly and Her Friends Abroad" by Lillian Elizabeth Roy is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. It follows the adventures of Polly Brewster and her friend Eleanor Maynard as they embark on a journey to Europe with other companions, including some adults. The narrative seems to explore themes of personal ambition, friendship, and the contrasts between American and European societal customs, particularly through the perspectives of the girls and their interactions with their mothers. At the start of the story, readers are introduced to Polly and Eleanor who are on a steamer bound to Europe, excited to study interior decorating and explore famous museums. The opening sets up their journey, highlighting Eleanor's humorous encounters, particularly with Mrs. Ebeneezer Alexander, who is overly concerned about her daughter Dodo marrying into nobility. Dodo shares her conflicting feelings about her mother’s ambitions versus her own aspirations for independence, which leads to an intriguing dynamic within the group. This engaging setup hints at a mix of adventures, character development, and cultural exploration that would unfold as the story progresses. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
