Summary "Quicksilver Sue" by Laura Elizabeth Howe Richards is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around a young girl named Sue Penrose, whose adventurous spirit and longing for excitement are piqued by the arrival of a new family in her quiet village—particularly, Clarice Packard, a rich and stylish girl. The book explores themes of friendship, social class differences, and the charm of youthful enthusiasm as Sue navigates her relationship with Clarice and her efforts to maintain her bond with her best friend, Mary. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to Sue Penrose and her lively personality, as she exuberantly shares the news of Clarice's arrival with her mother and later her friend Mary. Sue is brimming with excitement and imaginations of how the newcomer might change her everyday life. Through her vibrant interactions, particularly her telephonic "conversations" with Mary, the narrative establishes the charming and whimsical tone of the book. Sue's adventures, characterized by her impetuosity and imagination, set the stage for the unfolding dynamics between the three girls as they engage in play and navigate challenges of friendship that come with the contrasting personalities and backgrounds.
