Professor Johnny

"Professor Johnny" by J. Ā. K. is a late 19th-century children's tale about young Johnny Le Bras, called "Professor" by his friends because he loves science, and his lively sister Sue; they experience both ordinary and surprising events, such as family issues and visits from their playful cousin Felix. The story begins on a summer night with Johnny and Sue alone, their games causing a near-disaster involving a kerosene lamp. Johnny's level-headedness stands out when he calmly fixes the problem amid the chaos, exemplifying his personality. The excitement builds as alarms sound, drawing the community’s notice and underscoring the theme of learning through small accidents. This introduction highlights not only their relationship as siblings but also implies that educational experiences, covering science and chemistry, will be included in their adventures.
