"Two Little Knights of Kentucky" by Annie F. Johnston is a captivating tale set in the picturesque Lloydsborough Valley during a particularly cold Saint Valentine's eve. The story follows two young boys, Malcolm and Keith MacIntyre, who are staying with their grandmother while their parents are in Florida. The boys, full of mischief and curiosity, encounter a tramp and his bear at the local train station. The tramp, with a scarred face and a cunning demeanor, persuades the boys to let him and his bear stay in an abandoned cabin on their grandmother's property. The boys, moved by the tramp's tale of hardship, agree to keep the presence of the tramp and his bear a secret. As the story unfolds, the boys' cousin, Virginia, also known as Ginger, becomes involved in the adventure. Virginia, who longs for the freedom of her previous life at an army post, finds herself caught up in the boys' secret. The narrative takes a turn when the boys decide to buy the bear from the tramp, only to discover through a warning from the tramp's companion, Jonesy, that the man plans to steal the bear back. The boys' attempt to hide the bear in their home leads to a series of humorous and thrilling events, culminating in a valentine party where the bear's presence is dramatically revealed. The story is rich with themes of friendship, trust, and the innocence of childhood. It explores the boys' sense of responsibility and their desire to do good, even when faced with deceit. The narrative is interwoven with the vibrant backdrop of Kentucky's winter landscape and the warmth of family bonds, making it a delightful read for young audiences.
