"Highacres" by Jane Abbott is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Jerry, a spirited and adventurous girl who finds herself at a crossroads as she moves from her simple life in the mountains to the more sophisticated environment of Lincoln School. Throughout her journey, themes of discovery, personal growth, and the pursuit of dreams emerge as she navigates her new surroundings and friendships. The opening of the book introduces John Westley, who, while recuperating from an illness at a hotel, finds himself lost on Kettle Mountain. In a serendipitous encounter, he meets Jerry, a lively girl who leads him to a serene glade where she shares her vivid imagination and dreams. Their connection sets the stage for Jerry's aspirations to explore the world beyond her mountain home. The subsequent chapters reveal her transition to the bustling life at Lincoln School, where she faces both excitement and challenges, leading to her growth and exploration of identity in a new, vibrant community.
