| Summary | "Katie Robertson: A Girl's Story of Factory Life" by Margaret E. Winslow is a novel written in the late 19th century. The book centers around a young girl named Katie Robertson, who takes on the responsibility of contributing to her family's income by working at the local paper mill. Through her experiences, it explores themes of independence, the virtues of hard work, and the moral dilemmas that come with earning a living at a young age. At the start of the story, Katie's mother expresses concern over her daughter's decision to work in the factory, fearing for her safety and well-being. Despite her mother's hesitations, Katie remains determined, viewing the opportunity as a step toward independence and a way to support her family. The narrative highlights Katie's initial excitement and naivety about factory life, her interactions with family members, and her earnest desire to contribute, setting the stage for the challenges she will face as she balances her youthful optimism with the realities of labor and financial responsibility.
