"Norman Vallery; or, How to Overcome Evil with Good" by William Henry Giles Kingston is a story from the late 1800's that shows how a spoiled boy, Norman, who was raised without discipline, learns about behavior and kindness. Norman comes back from India acting unkind, especially towards his sister, Fanny, and animals because he has not had a proper upbringing. The contrast between Norman's mean actions and Fanny's caring nature points to Norman's journey towards becoming a better person, especially as he deals with the results of his actions and starts to understand the worth of compassion.
