| Summary | "Mollie and the Unwiseman Abroad" by John Kendrick Bangs is a whimsical children’s novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a young girl named Mollie, her animated rubber doll companion Whistlebinkie, and a peculiar old man known as the Unwiseman, who embarks on an adventurous journey to Europe with them. The narrative hints at a comedic exploration of the world, driven by the characters' delightful misunderstandings and imaginative antics. At the start of the story, Mollie is overjoyed to learn that she and Whistlebinkie will travel to Europe, a notion that excites Whistlebinkie, although he is deeply concerned about the Unwiseman's potential absence. Upon visiting the Unwiseman, they engage in a humorous conversation where strange ideas and quirky logic abound. The Unwiseman, characterized by his strange beliefs and whimsical perspective on the world, unexpectedly joins their adventure after determining that he would not miss the opportunity to discover places such as the Alps and other fantastical locations. The opening establishes the playful tone of the book, characterized by charming dialogue, imaginative scenarios, and the amusing antics of the characters, setting the stage for the adventures that lie ahead.
