"The Corner House Girls' Odd Find" by Grace Brooks Hill is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around the four Kenway sisters—Ruth, Agnes, Tess, and Dot—who share life in the old Corner House, where they encounter adventures and mysteries. The narrative suggests themes of family bonds, friendship, and the exploration of their home, particularly following a curious discovery that leads to various events surrounding Christmas. The opening of the story sets the scene just days before Christmas as the sisters prepare for the holiday by decorating their home. In a whimsical conversation about Santa Claus, the youngest sister, Dot, expresses her belief in Santa's adventurous spirit. The mood shifts when they find an old family album in the garret, which Agnes insists on taking with her. Amidst decorating and playful exchanges with Uncle Rufus, the children hear odd noises coming from the chimney, which heighten their excitement and suggest that their Christmas will be filled with surprises. This playful yet mysterious tone hints at further adventures involving their unexpected discoveries and the enchantment of the holiday season. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
