The Crown of Success
E-text prepared by Mark C. Orton, Linda McKeown, Jacqueline Jeremy,
"The Crown of Success" by A. L. O. E. is a fictional work likely written in the mid-19th century. This children's story follows the lives of Dame Desley and her four children—Dick, Matty, Lubin, and Nelly—as they navigate the challenges of education and personal growth after their mother must leave them in the care of a character named Mr. Learning. The narrative centers on themes of diligence, ambition, and character development as each child learns to balance fun with responsibility. The opening of the story introduces the children's joyful, carefree life, which is disrupted when their mother, Dame Desley, prepares to depart for a long journey. She assures them that Mr. Learning will guide them in her absence, prompting a range of reactions from the children. While Dick is filled with excitement and dreams of adventure, Matty shows skepticism towards Mr. Learning, and Lubin expresses a desire for their old way of life. Nelly, although shy, demonstrates a sense of respect for their mother's wishes and a willingness to try and appreciate Mr. Learning. This sets the stage for their individual journeys in learning and self-discovery, influenced by their differing perspectives on education and personal ambition.
