Thomas, Elizabeth Meade, Elizabeth Thomasina Meade, Lillie Mead, L. T. The Little School-Mothers Produced by Nick Hodson of London, England "The Little School-Mothers" by L. T. Meade is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Robina Starling, a new pupil at Abbeyfield School, and the girls from the third form who are assigned to help her adjust to her new life. With themes of friendship, responsibility, and the challenges of growing up, the narrative captures the dynamics among the students as they navigate their relationships and the arrival of the new girl. At the start of the book, Mrs. Burton, the headmistress, announces the arrival of Robina, who has never been at school before and comes from a troublesome home situation. The girls in the third form are excited and apprehensive about taking care of her, debating her character and how best to welcome her. Robina’s bold and somewhat unrefined nature immediately sets her apart from the other girls, especially Harriet, who feels a sense of rivalry growing as Robina quickly becomes popular among the younger students. The opening sets the stage for the story's exploration of hierarchy, friendship, and personal growth within the school environment. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
