Summary

"The Rosie World" by Parker Fillmore is a story set in the early 1900s, following Rosie O'Brien, a young girl striving to find her place in a lively household and a world that seems to favor boys. We meet Rosie within her bustling family as she playfully argues with her siblings, listens to the boarder George Riley's tales of adventure, and dreams of a life with the same freedom and respect given to boys. Rosie confronts the expectations of being a girl while trying to assert her independence, dealing with sisterly rivalry and striving to forge her own path in a society that often limits her ambitions.
