Summary "The Corner House Girls Under Canvas" by Grace Brooks Hill is a fictional work written in the early 20th century. This charming story follows the adventures of the four Kenway sisters—Ruth, Agnes, Tess, and Dot—as they embark on a summer trip to Pleasant Cove. The narrative weaves themes of friendship, loyalty, and the joys of youth against the backdrop of their lively family home, known as the Corner House. The opening of the book introduces the Kenway sisters on a rainy day, where Dot finds a dripping wet dog outside, prompting them to care for him and ultimately decide to adopt him, naming him Tom Jonah. The girls' adventures quickly escalate with Tom Jonah's unexpected role as a protector when he catches a Gypsy attempting to steal from their henhouse, showcasing the blend of domestic life and the thrill of excitement. As they look forward to their summer plans, the relationship dynamics among the sisters are established, alongside their interactions with neighbors and friends, setting the stage for the adventures that await them in Pleasant Cove.
