Sluijters, Jan 1881 1957 Sluyters, Jan Sluijters, Johannes Carolus Bernardus In het Schemeruur Produced by Jeroen Hellingman and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net/ "In het Schemeruur" by Pieter Louwerse is a collection of children's stories likely written in the late 19th century. The work comprises heartwarming tales that aim to entertain and educate young readers, featuring characters like the kind-hearted old man George van Laeken and the whimsical figure of Jan met de Pijp, a restored smoking Moor figure that the children of the village cherish. Through these narratives, the book explores themes of friendship, kindness, and the journey of self-discovery. The opening of the book introduces readers to a picturesque garden in the village of Schootwerve, where the community's children eagerly await the arrival of Jan met de Pijp, a beloved garden ornament. The story then shifts focus to George van Laeken, who recounts his life journey from poverty to prosperity as a shipwright. His heartwarming relationship with his twin nieces, Helena and Anna, leads him to host storytelling sessions for the village children, fostering a sense of community. As George shares tales of bygone days, including the adventures of young sailors Tom and Jan, readers are invited to reflect on themes of courage and resilience in the face of life's challenges.
