"Miss Grantley's Girls, and the Stories She Told Them" by Thomas Archer is a novel written in the late 19th century. The book follows Miss Grantley, a governess who has opened a school in the quiet suburban setting of Barton Vale. Through the introduction, we are introduced to her character and the fondness her students have for her, setting the stage for the stories she shares with them throughout the narrative. At the start of the book, we meet Miss Grantley, described as a remarkable yet unassuming woman who has become the beloved governess to a group of girls in Barton Vale. The narrative introduces the school and its environment, illustrating her gentle nature, past hardships, and the affection she receives from both her students and the community. The girls are eager to engage with her and learn from stories, building anticipation for the tales that will follow. We learn about their close bond as Miss Grantley nurtures their intellect and imagination during fanciful tea times, indicating that the storytelling aspect will play an integral role throughout the text.
