| Summary |
"A Little Maid" by Amy Le Feuvre is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a young girl named Peggy, who lives in the slums of London and dreams of a better life in service to a kind family. As Peggy navigates her tough upbringing and the challenges that come with her responsibilities at home, she longs for the opportunity to help others and make a difference in their lives. The opening of the book introduces readers to Peggy, a little girl who is determined yet subjected to the harsh realities of her environment. Living with her aunt, a bitter cripple who makes her life difficult, Peggy dreams of a better future where she can serve a kind lady. Despite her challenging home life, Peggy is a dreamer, frequently imagining her future in service and the good she could bring to those around her. Through her kind-hearted nature and determination, the opening chapters set the stage for Peggy’s journey of self-discovery and growth as she learns what it means to truly serve others.
