Summary: "Girls in Bookland" by Hildegarde Hawthorne is a fictional children's book written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around two sisters, Rose and Ruth, whose adventures lead them through magical realms via a mystical "Magic Gate," allowing them to interact with notable characters from literature, such as Sappho and Jo March from "Little Women." The themes explore the power of imagination, friendship, and the joy of storytelling. The opening of the book introduces Rose and Ruth as whimsical young sisters who feel lonely during a snowstorm at their ranch. They dream of adventure and desire to meet other children, expressing wishes for a magic carpet to take them to far-off places. Their longing for excitement becomes reality when a fairy advises them to journey through the Magic Gate, which promises to connect them with enchanting characters from different eras and stories. The girls soon find themselves embarking on adventures with characters such as Sappho, immersing themselves in her world in ancient Greece, setting the stage for further literary encounters throughout the book.
