| Summary | "Diddie, Dumps, and Tot; Or, Plantation Child-Life" by Louise Clarke Pyrnelle is a children's novel written in the late 19th century, specifically in the 1880s. The story centers around the lives of three sisters, Diddie, Dumps, and Tot, who are the daughters of a Southern planter living on a cotton plantation in Mississippi. The narrative captures their unique childhood experiences, relationships with the enslaved household members, and the vibrant, often whimsical world of plantation life during this period. The opening of the novel introduces the charm and innocence of the sisters, highlighting their fondness for their caretakers and the playful nature of their lives amid plantation traditions. The children are depicted in various scenarios, from enjoying tea parties in their gardens to engaging in imaginative play with the other children on the plantation. It sets the scene for a tapestry of tales, filled with the happiness, simplicity, and innocence of early childhood, while also touching on the complex social dynamics of their environment.
