Miss Hope's Niece or Esmee's Choice: A Story for Girls is a novel written by Cecilia Selby Lowndes and first published in 1889. The story follows the life of Esmee, a young girl who is sent to live with her wealthy aunt, Miss Hope, after her father's death. Esmee is initially thrilled to be living in such a grand house with her aunt, but soon realizes that Miss Hope is a strict and demanding woman who has little time for her. Despite this, Esmee finds solace in her new surroundings and makes friends with the other girls in the neighbourhood. She also becomes close to her cousin, Jack, who is a kind and caring boy. However, Esmee's happiness is short-lived when she discovers that her aunt has arranged for her to marry a wealthy but unpleasant man. Esmee is torn between her desire to please her aunt and her own feelings for Jack. She must decide whether to follow her heart or obey her aunt's wishes. Along the way, Esmee learns valuable lessons about love, loyalty, and the importance of standing up for oneself. Miss Hope's Niece or Esmee's Choice is a charming and engaging story that will appeal to young readers. It is a tale of friendship, family, and the power of love to overcome even the most difficult of obstacles.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
