Marjorie's Vacation

"Marjorie's Vacation" by Carolyn Wells is a charming tale about a spirited young girl named Marjorie Maynard who embarks on a summer adventure at her grandmother's farm. The story begins as twelve-year-old Marjorie excitedly prepares to leave her home and siblings—Kingdon, Kitty, and Rosamond—for a three-month stay in the countryside. Although she's thrilled about exploring the farm, she also experiences the sadness of leaving her family. As Marjorie arrives at Grandma Sherwood's, readers anticipate her immersion into farm life, filled with new discoveries, playful mischief, and the simple joys of rural living.
