Summary: "Bessie in the City" by Joanna H. Mathews is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. This charming work follows the adventures of two sisters, Maggie and Bessie Bradford, as they navigate life back at home after a summer at the sea-shore.

The opening of the book introduces us to Maggie and Bessie, who are engaged in a lively conversation after returning from their summer vacation.

As the narrative unfolds, we see the children's genuine concern for others, their plans to earn money, and their interaction with characters like Mr. Hall, who adds warmth to their story.
