Summary "Smiles: A Book of Recitations for Girls" by Alice Lewis Richards is a charming collection of recitations written for young girls, likely during the late 19th century. This book is intended to provide children with a variety of pieces that are suitable for different occasions, allowing them to practice speaking and performing in front of an audience. The topics of the recitations often revolve around themes relevant to childhood experiences, nature, and simple moral lessons. The book contains numerous short poems and recitations that touch on various aspects of a young girl's life, including her interactions with family, her observations of nature, and her imaginative play. Each piece presents relatable scenarios, such as the joys of having a pet, the innocence of childhood wonder, and the bittersweet transition from childhood to maturity. The collection encourages girls to express their feelings and thoughts, fostering a sense of creativity and personal development through the art of recitation. Overall, it serves as both an educational tool and a delightful exploration of girlhood. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
