| Summary |
"Rosemary" by Josephine Lawrence is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers on a twelve-year-old girl named Rosemary Willis and her two younger sisters, Sarah and Shirley, as they navigate life after their mother falls ill. The novel explores themes of family responsibilities, childhood innocence, and the trials of growing up, set against the backdrop of a quiet suburban life. The opening of the book introduces us to the Willis household as the young sisters anxiously await news about their mother's health. Rosemary is depicted as caring and optimistic, despite her worries, and we see her taking on adult responsibilities in the absence of her mother. The arrival of Dr. Hugh Willis, Rosemary's brother, signals a shift as he takes charge of the family. Through the sisters' interactions and their individual personalities, we glimpse the dynamics of family life and the challenges that lie ahead, suggesting a heartwarming journey of growth and resilience for Rosemary and her siblings.
