Johnston is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. This charming story revolves around the adventures of a young girl named Lloyd Sherman, affectionately known as the Little Colonel, as she prepares to host a house party during the summer. The tale captures the essence of childhood friendships and the excitement of gathering diverse characters, including cousins and friends, at her family's Kentucky estate. At the start of the book, we are introduced to the idyllic setting of Lloydsboro Valley and the likable character of the Little Colonel, who is now eleven years old. As she rides her pony to send out invitations for her upcoming house party, Lloyd enthusiastically discusses her friends and the anticipated activities. The narrative swiftly introduces other girls invited to the party, including Elizabeth, a poor orphan, and Eugenia, a wealthy but lonely girl, laying the groundwork for their interactions during the fun-filled events ahead. The opening paints a picture of innocence, mischief, and the promise of summer adventures as the characters head toward the gathering. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
