"Polly's First Year at Boarding School" by Dorothy Whitehill is a captivating tale of a young girl's experiences during her inaugural year at Seddon Hall, a prestigious boarding school. The story begins with Polly Pendleton, a spirited and lively thirteen-year-old, arriving at the school with her uncle. Initially overwhelmed by the bustling environment, Polly quickly finds her place among her peers. Her charm and wit earn her the friendship of several girls, including the popular Lois Farwell, the humorous Betty Thompson, and the artistic Constance Wentworth. Throughout the year, Polly navigates the challenges and joys of boarding school life. She participates in various school events, such as the paper chase, where her adaptability skills shine, earning her respect and admiration from both new and old students. The narrative also highlights the importance of sports at Seddon Hall, particularly basket-ball, where Polly's talent as a center player is recognized, leading to her selection as a substitute for the school's main team-a rare achievement for a Freshman. The story is not just about Polly's personal achievements but also about the bonds she forms with her classmates. The Thanksgiving party, organized by the Seniors, is a testament to the camaraderie and spirit of the school, as students come together to celebrate despite being away from home. Polly's journey is one of self-discovery, friendship, and the realization that she is not just an ordinary girl but someone who fits perfectly into the vibrant community of Seddon Hall.
