Summary "The Two Kinds of Fear" by Anonymous is a moral tale written in the late 19th century. This book takes the form of a children's narrative that contrasts two types of fear: the fear of punishment and the fear of sin itself. It aims to impart a lesson on moral integrity and the understanding of good and evil through storytelling. The narrative revolves around two boys, Robert Wright and Harry Brown, who face moral dilemmas in their lives. Robert, coming from a wealthy background, succumbs to temptation and steals money meant for charity, ultimately leading to a life of regret and despair. In contrast, Harry, who lives in poverty and has a sick mother, resists the temptation to steal food for his mother, demonstrating a strong moral character rooted in his faith in God. The story culminates in Robert's tragic downfall, highlighting the dangers of living without the fear of sin, whereas Harry's adherence to his principles leads to a fulfilling life, reinforcing the idea that true fear should come from the understanding of sin rather than a fear of earthly consequences.
