Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book follows the story of Thomas Simpkins, a young boy living in the late 1700s. The author tells the tale of Simpkins's education, which takes place through a charity school that teaches its pupils about the Christian religion, morals, and basic arithmetic and literacy. The book acts as a reminder of the importance of education and charity work while also providing a historical insight into how poor children were brought up in Simpkins's day. Moreover, it presents an argument for the importance of reading and writing, and of teaching children about morality and religion. It explores the idea that a lack of opportunity, due to class divide, results in criminal behavior. The author also shows how Thomas's faith helps him overcome adversity.
