"The Little Missis" by Charlotte Skinner is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story centers around Phebe Waring, a young woman navigating her life after her unexpected marriage to Ralph Waring, who has left her for a venture in Australia, leaving her to manage a struggling business and care for their two small children. The narrative explores themes of faith, resilience, and the bonds of friendship, especially through the character of Mrs. Colston, who offers her support. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Phebe and her close relationship with Mrs. Colston, who affectionately helps her with daily chores while providing emotional support. Phebe reveals her feelings of loneliness and doubt after Ralph's departure, emphasizing her struggle to maintain her faith amid personal upheaval. The opening portion depicts Phebe's reflections on her newfound responsibilities and challenges, while hints of her inner strength suggest a journey of growth supported by her friendships and her faith in God. The story sets the tone for Phebe's journey as she faces life's trials while seeking to uphold her family and business. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
