Summary "Hildegarde's Holiday: A Story for Girls" by Laura Elizabeth Howe Richards is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. The book introduces readers to the lively character Hildegarde Grahame, who is filled with excitement and anticipation for her upcoming summer holiday. The story revolves around her close relationship with her friend Rose, who is recovering from an illness, and their journey to visit Cousin Wealthy in a picturesque setting. The opening portion of the novel establishes a poignant atmosphere as Hildegarde anxiously awaits news about her friend's operation at the hospital. The narrative quickly shifts from this anxious moment to a much lighter and joy-filled dynamic as Hildegarde and Rose prepare for their holiday. Their character dynamics are highlighted through their playful conversation and imaginative thinking as they explore their surroundings. As they transition to their new destination, readers are introduced to a whimsical and idyllic setting, with hints of adventure to come as the girls navigate their adventures together.
