Summary "Cornelli" by Johanna Spyri is a children's novel written during the late 19th century. The story centers around a young girl named Cornelli, who navigates her childhood amidst the changes brought by her father's absence and the arrival of two women from the city intended to influence her upbringing. As Cornelli faces challenges in adapting to these new dynamics, her character is explored in depth, revealing both her joys and struggles. The opening of "Cornelli" introduces readers to a vivid spring scene where the lively protagonist delights in nature and expresses her exuberance through song. It establishes her relationship with an elderly woman named Martha, who serves as a friend and a source of life lessons for Cornelli. As the narrative unfolds, readers learn about Cornelli's father, who hopes to improve his daughter's education by inviting his cousin and her friend to stay with them. However, Cornelli is resistant to change and yearns for the simplicity of her previous life, setting the stage for the conflicts and growth that will characterize her journey.
