| Summary |
"Letty and the Twins" by Helen Sherman Griffith is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Letty Grey and the twins, Jane and Christopher, as they navigate their lives intertwined with the circus and the warmth of family at a farm called Sunnycrest. The narrative appears to be filled with themes of friendship, adventure, and the struggles of childhood, offering a glimpse into the whimsical world of young readers." "The opening of the novel introduces us to twins Jane and Christopher as they embark on a train journey to their grandfather's farm, Sunnycrest. Along the way, they encounter Letty, a former circus performer who had once saved their lives, and learn about her troubled past that includes the loss of her family members. The children are excited about their summer on the farm and express longing to help Letty, who appears sad and lost after her departure from the circus. As the story unfolds, it hints at themes of friendship and the desire for connection, setting the stage for the sweeter exploration of childhood joys and trials that will follow."
