The eponymous Dorothy Brooke is a bright and curious girl who is eager to explore the world around her. When her parents decide to take her on a trip to the countryside, Dorothy is thrilled at the prospect of new sights and experiences.As Dorothy and her family settle into their vacation home, she quickly becomes fascinated by the local flora and fauna. She spends her days exploring the woods and fields, observing the animals and plants, and learning about the natural world. Along the way, she makes new friends and discovers hidden treasures, including a secret garden and a mysterious old house.But Dorothy's idyllic vacation is not without its challenges. She must contend with the occasional bout of homesickness, as well as the jealousy of a local girl who resents her presence. And when a sudden storm threatens to ruin her plans, Dorothy must summon all her courage and resourcefulness to save the day.Throughout the book, Sparhawk's writing is vivid and evocative, painting a rich and detailed picture of the world that Dorothy inhabits. The book is also notable for its strong female protagonist, who is curious, brave, and independent - a refreshing departure from the more passive heroines of many children's books of the time.Overall, Dorothy Brooke's Vacation is a delightful read that will appeal to children and adults alike. Its timeless themes of adventure, friendship, and the joys of discovery make it a classic of children's literature that still resonates today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
