"Cornelli" by Johanna Spyri is a tale set in the late 1800s that follows a young spirited girl as she deals with significant changes in her life. The story opens with Cornelli joyfully embracing nature in the springtime and highlights her close bond with Martha, an older woman who offers guidance. When Cornelli's father brings in his cousin and her friend to help with Cornelli's education, she resists their influence, preferring her simple life, and this sets up the central conflict as she learns to adjust and grow.
