"Sisters" by Grace May North is a fictional novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around two young girls, Jenny and Gwynette, who are separated at a young age without knowledge of each other's existence. Jenny, raised in a humble setting with loving grandparents, embarks on a journey that intertwines with the more privileged life of her sister Gwynette, who is growing up with a wealthy family just a short distance away. The opening portion introduces the idyllic backdrop of Rocky Point, California, where Jenny lives with her grandparents, Si and Susan Warner, who have raised her since she was a baby. They have kept the secret of her sister Gwynette, who has been adopted by the affluent Mrs. Algernon Poindexter-Jones. As the narrative unfolds, we see the beginnings of Jenny's life as a spirited girl who dreams of owning the family farm and is already working to make that dream a reality through her business of selling eggs and honey. Key themes of the story include class differences, the bonds of sisterhood, and the innocence of youth in the contrast between Jenny's loving home and Gwynette's lavish but emotionally distant upbringing. The stage is set for their eventual intersection as Jenny’s kind-hearted nature propels her towards actions that will challenge the secrecy that shapes their lives.
