Summary "A Little Maid of Picardy" by Amy Ella Blanchard is a historical fiction novel written in the early 20th century. The book likely centers around a young girl named Lucie Du Bois, who navigates the challenges and changes brought on by war in her native France. As a tale of resilience and friendship, it explores themes of bravery and the impact of conflict on family life and childhood innocence. The opening of the story introduces readers to Lucie, a fourteen-year-old girl who enjoys spending time in her garden with her friend Annette. The two share a deep bond while discussing their lives and exchanging songs in English and French. As the narrative progresses, the looming threat of war becomes apparent, with Lucie’s father preparing to leave for battle as tensions rise in France. The chapter concludes with Lucie's promise to be brave, setting a tone of courage and uncertainty that will likely guide her journey through the turmoil ahead. With vivid character interactions and a backdrop of impending conflict, the beginnings of this novel establish an emotional foundation and an urgent context for the unfolding story.
