Summary: "The Pool of Stars" by Cornelia Meigs is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book centers around Elizabeth Houghton, a young girl facing a significant decision concerning her future—whether to pursue her education at college or accompany her travel-loving Aunt Susan on an exciting journey. The narrative unfolds as Elizabeth grapples with her feelings for her deceased mother’s wishes and her desire for adventure. At the start of the story, Elizabeth Houghton is at a crossroads, both literally and figuratively, as she decides whether to visit her Aunt Susan or Miss Miranda Reynolds, a friend of her father's. After much internal debate, she chooses to go to Somerset Lane, intrigued by the mysterious past of a nearby ruined house and eager to learn more about Miss Miranda. Upon arriving at Miss Miranda's cottage, Elizabeth quickly finds herself embroiled in lively conversations about cooking, life, and even the challenges that Miss Miranda faces. The opening chapter establishes an inviting and reflective atmosphere, setting the stage for Elizabeth's journey of personal growth and the exploration of friendship, loyalty, and the pursuit of dreams.
