Polly: A New Fashioned Girl by L.T. Meade is a heartwarming tale about a young girl named Polly. The story follows Polly's journey as she moves from a small village to live with her wealthy aunt in London. Polly is a kind and gentle girl, but she is not used to the fast-paced, fashionable lifestyle of her new surroundings. She struggles to fit in with her sophisticated cousins and their friends, who are more interested in fashion and social events than in the things that matter to Polly. Despite this, Polly remains true to herself and soon finds a group of like-minded friends who appreciate her for who she is. Along the way, Polly learns important lessons about loyalty, kindness, and the importance of being true to oneself. This charming story is full of delightful characters, humorous moments, and heartwarming lessons that will resonate with readers of all ages.1911. L.T. Meade, English novelist, wrote her first book, Lettie's Last Home, at the age of seventeen and since then has been an unusually prolific writer, her stories attaining wide popularity on both sides of the Atlantic. Most of her more than fifty novels deal largely with questions of home life. Polly begins: It was an intensely hot July day-not a cloud appeared in the high blue vault of the sky; the trees, the flowers, the grasses, were all motionless, for not even the gentlest zephyr of a breeze was abroad; the whole world seemed lapped in a sort of drowsy, hot, languorous slumber. Even the flowers bowed their heads a little weariedly, and the birds after a time ceased singing, and got into the coolest and most shady parts of the great forest trees. There they sat and talked to one another of the glorious weather, for they liked the heat, although it made them too lazy to sing.
