Summary: "Prudy Keeping House" by Sophie May is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around young Prudy and her cousins, who embark on a series of adventures while temporarily left to manage a household without adult supervision. Central to the narrative is the theme of childhood curiosity and the comedic chaos that ensues when kids attempt to take on adult responsibilities. The opening of the book introduces the characters and establishes the setting in Aunt Madge's house, where the children experience a snowstorm and engage in whimsical conversations about the weather and angels. Prudy's desire to "keep house" becomes a focal point as Aunt Madge has to leave, prompting the children to convince her to allow them the privilege to manage things themselves. As they prepare to take on this delightful challenge, their dynamic and playful interactions highlight their innocence and imaginative spirit, setting the stage for the adventures that will follow in their attempt to run a household.
