"Little Fishers: and Their Nets" by Pansy is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around the lives of the Decker family, particularly focusing on Nettie, the daughter who returns to a troubling home after being raised by another family. The book explores themes of poverty, family dynamics, and the impact of alcoholism on a household as Nettie grapples with her father's struggles and seeks to create a better environment for her siblings and mother. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the Decker household, characterized by neglect and despair. Joe Decker expresses his dissatisfaction with the state of their home after a poor meal and announces that his daughter, Nan (Nettie), is returning. As the narrative unfolds, we meet Nettie, an optimistic and tidy young girl, who arrives to find her father's alcoholism has led to a deteriorating home life filled with strife and sadness. The opening portrays Nettie's mixture of hope and fear as she begins to face the realities of her family's circumstances, establishing her motivation to help not only her mother but also her troubled siblings.
