The story revolves around a sensitive nine-year-old girl named Elizabeth Ann, who is affectionately referred to as Betsy, as she navigates the challenges of life after being sent away from her home and her beloved Aunt Frances to stay with relatives in Vermont. The novel explores themes of childhood, personal growth, and the search for belonging. The opening of "Understood Betsy" introduces Elizabeth Ann's life with her well-meaning but overprotective aunts, Great-aunt Harriet and Aunt Frances. After a sudden health crisis in the family, Elizabeth Ann finds herself feeling lonely and frightened as she is sent to the Putney Farm to live with her distant relatives. Initially overwhelmed by new experiences, she gradually begins to find her voice and discover her own strengths through simple tasks and interactions with her new family. The unfolding story hints at Elizabeth Ann's journey from dependence to independence, setting the stage for her development and adaptation to her new environment.
