Produktbeschreibung
A tale of courage, companionship and quiet growth set within the bustling corridors of Haddo Court School. Betty Vivian invites young readers to walk its windy halls, where loyalty is tested, fears are faced, and friendship proves a girl's best preparation for life beyond the classroom. This is more than a story of school days; it is a vivid work of juvenile girls fiction that folds classic coming¿of¿age themes into a lively, boarding school setting. Meade's portraits of friendships, rivalries, and moments of resolve sit beside tales of mischief and everyday triumph, offering both gentle instruction and genuine heart. The narrative sits proudly among enduring school stories, echoing the mood of Edwardian and late Victorian children's literature while speaking clearly to today's young girls readers. Historically, Betty Vivian stands as a touchstone in classic girls literature, a bridge between early school tales and the later, illustrated edition collection that many readers treasure. Its enduring appeal lies in accessible, character-driven storytelling and a sense of community that still resonates. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this edition is restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. A perfect companion for fans of E. Nesbit school stories and complete classic collections, and a timeless choice for anyone seeking evocative, wholesome Edwardian school novels.
