Summary "The Youngest Sister: A Tale of Manitoba" by Bessie Marchant is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story follows Bertha, a sensitive and dreamy young girl who unexpectedly rises to the challenge when a man is in danger at sea, revealing her hidden bravery. Set against the backdrop of Manitoba, the narrative revolves around Bertha’s struggles with self-doubt and her desire to be useful, as well as the dynamics within her family, particularly with her two elder sisters.

Overwhelmed yet determined, Bertha bravely swims to save him, despite her initial fears and self-doubt. After overcoming this significant challenge, she feels a surge of elation, which awakens a desire within her to become more responsible and helpful around the house.
