"A Little Gipsy Lass: A Story of Moorland and Wild" by Gordon Stables is a story set in the early 1900s that follows Lotty Lee, a young gipsy girl, and her developing friendship with Frank Antony Blake, an English gentleman, after they meet at a north-country train station. The story explores themes of adventure and nature during Frank’s arrival, who is greeted by Lotty, his guide to the gipsy encampment where she lives. Lotty’s character is established as lively, yet touched with a sense of sorrow with the absence of her mother; together, the two venture across Whinny Moor, where their dialogue unveils a sweet friendship set against the backdrop of mystical moorland. Lotty's whimsical personality and vivid descriptions of her surroundings set the stage for adventures rooted in companionship and community.
