Riassunto

Kate was a beautiful daughter who helped comfort her father’s patients. When the doctors assistant, Dr. Carey, took an interest in her, he sent a letter of his feelings. Then the unfortunate events started. When Mrs. Duffy was shot and taken to Dr. Carey’s Hospital, Kate and Philip barely talked. Then good events started. Kate was learning that in order to bear her own burden well, it was necessary to share that of another. Another moral principle is the forgiveness of the serious sin of another.

L'autore:

HESBA STRETTON (1832–1911) was born in Wellington, England. She had the good fortune of being able to read books from her father’s bookshop, a printer of evangelical literature. Her mother was a strong evangelical, but died when Sarah was young. When Sarah Smith began writing, Hesba Stretton was her pen name, Stretton coming from the name of a neighboring village, and Hesba coming from the initials of her siblings. She wrote “Jessica’s First Prayer” in 1867, which became one of her most beloved stories. It sold very well and was translated into many languages. Other best sellers were “Little Meg’s Children” and “Alone in London.” She was familiar with the troubles of street children whom she visited and helped. She wrote over 60 books and stories which highlight Biblical principles.
