About This Book

A sheltered eight-year-old named Priscilla lives a quiet, solitary life in a carefully managed nursery until Miss Cissy brings a lively girl named Polly to visit. Their companionship turns routine days into shared play, birthday celebrations, and small household adventures with nurses and attendants. Through parties, outings, and a series of episodic challenges and triumphs, the children learn about friendship, resourcefulness, and growing confidence, while family relationships and Priscilla’s daily habits are gently reshaped by the pleasures and trials of imaginative play.
