Dorothy Dale at Glenwood School

"Dorothy Dale at Glenwood School" by Margaret Penrose is an early 20th-century story about a girl named Dorothy whose life takes an exciting turn after her wealthy uncle in India passes away. The story follows Dorothy and her best friend, Tavia Travers, as they dream of new adventures while dealing with themes of friendship, family wealth, and growing up. As Dorothy and her father, Major Dale, celebrate their unexpected fortune and imagine a changed future, Tavia’s arrival brings playfulness and excitement. However, the undercurrent of tension simmers as Dorothy must face her past troubles with Andrew Anderson, setting the stage for youthful friendships, worries about the future, and an impending transition to Glenwood School.
