Summary "The Gabled Farm; or, Young Workers for the King" by Catharine Shaw is a fictional children's novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the Arundel family, particularly focusing on the children as they strive to find purpose and joy in their lives, often through acts of kindness and community service. This work reflects themes such as family, charity, and the challenges faced by the characters, especially little Tom, who struggles with a disability. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to the Arundel family during a particularly hot summer day in Bloomsbury. The children, including the introspective and hardworking Nellie, the impetuous Ada, and the empathetic Tom, express their frustrations with the oppressive heat and boredom inside their home. Their conversation hints at a longing for adventure and change, which eventually leads to the family planning a trip to South Bay. As they prepare for their journey, themes of duty, responsibility, and a desire for happiness begin to emerge, setting the stage for a story about growth and connection in the context of both family life and broader community interactions.
