Summary: "The Manor School" by L. T. Meade is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a thirteen-year-old girl named Christian Mitford, who feels trapped by her parents' decision to send her away to a strict-school following their impending move to Persia. As she grapples with the news, the narrative explores her imaginative spirit, deep yearning for adventure, and plans to escape her predetermined path alongside her friend, Rose. At the start of the story, readers are introduced to Christian, an imaginative and somewhat rebellious girl. She spends much of her time in the attics of her large home, conjuring up adventurous scenarios with her dolls and fairy tales. However, her life takes a sudden turn when she overhears her mother's plans to send her to a severe school, which she envisions as a prison. In response to this perceived threat to her freedom, Christian begins to plot a daring escape with Rose, laying the groundwork for what promises to be an adventurous journey filled with challenges and an exploration of her identity. This opening sets the stage for a larger narrative about childhood innocence, the desire for autonomy, and the clash between familial expectations and personal dreams.
