Summary

"A Little Girl in Old Salem" by Amanda M. Douglas is a story that takes place in 19th-century Salem, Massachusetts, where we are introduced to a young girl named Cynthia who lived in India with her father. After her father has passed away, she travels to America and now must adapt to a completely different life with her guardian, Chilian Leverett. The story contrasts Cynthia's memories and traditions of India with the new customs and expectations she encounters while adjusting to life with Chilian, and his cousins Elizabeth and Eunice. As she navigates her grief and curiosity, she begins a journey of finding her place in an unfamiliar world.
