| Summary | "The Bountiful Lady" by Thomas Cobb is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers on Mary Brown, a mistreated and impoverished girl who dreams of a better life. Her plight is transformed when she is taken from her harsh reality to a magical place where she discovers kindness, comfort, and the wonders of fairy-tale characters. The opening of the novel introduces readers to Mary's difficult life in a poor urban environment, where she faces neglect and hardship. One day, something extraordinary happens: after expressing a desire for something better through her play, she finds herself in a magical new place, recovering from an injury and being tended to by kind-hearted figures. As she navigates this enchanting world, Mary begins to cherish her new circumstances and become curious about her “fairy-godmother,” Evangeline, who symbolizes hope and transformation. The beginning sets the stage for Mary's journey of self-discovery and an exploration of themes like kindness, magic, and the contrast between harsh reality and fairy-tale wonders.
