"The Making of a Woman" by Amy Le Feuvre is a tale from the late 1800s about Jean Desmond, a lively young girl trapped by her stern grandfather and the dullness of her marshland home. Longing to paint and break free, she wonders what it means to grow into a woman in a world that wants to hold her back. In the beginning, Jean feels stuck with her controlling grandfather, Mr. Desmond, who limits what she learns and does. Jean deeply desires to create art because she misses her painter mother and is tired of her grandfather's rules. The world around her feels lifeless, reflecting her inner battles, so she musters the bravery to chase her dreams and find a new life away from her restrictive upbringing.
