Summary

"A Bookful of Girls" by Anna Fuller is a cheerful story from the early 1900s about a lively girl named Blythe Halliday, who takes a ship journey across the ocean with her mom. On the ship, she meets all sorts of interesting people and quickly befriends them, including a puzzling writer and a delightful child from the lower decks. Blythe's adventure starts when she hops aboard the "Lorelei" with her mom, headed for Europe. Blythe is super interested in the other people on the boat, so she starts talking to a confident English guy who she thinks is the well-known poet, Hugh Dalton. While they are sailing, Blythe sees a young girl in steerage, and she feels sorry for her, leading her to want to guide her. The book hints at themes of friendship and differences in social class.
