Georgina of the Rainbows

"Georgina of the Rainbows" by Annie F. Johnston is a heartwarming tale about a young girl named Georgina Huntingdon, whose childhood is etched with enchanting escapades in her tranquil seaside town. We first catch a glimpse of Georgina as a toddler, her earliest memory sparked by a comical incident involving old Jeremy Clapp's dentures and a roaring fire, all under the watchful eye of Mrs. Triplett, the family's caring housekeeper. From her perch in a highchair, Georgina's curiosity is ignited daily by the presence of the Towncrier, a storyteller who becomes a treasured companion. This story begins like a gentle memory, and grows into one of friendship, wonder, and self-discovery as Georgina, along with her friend Richard, seeks adventure and understanding in their idyllic yet ever-expanding world.
