"Keltaisen talon lapset" by Kate Douglas Smith Wiggin is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the Carey family, particularly focusing on the strong and nurturing character of Carey-äiti (Mother Carey) and her children, whose lively interactions dramatize their close-knit family life amid challenges. As they navigate the difficulties posed by their father's illness and eventual passing, themes of family, resilience, and love emerge prominently. At the start of the narrative, we see Carey-äiti preparing to leave for a time while her ailing husband is being cared for. The children, including Gilbert, Nancy, Kathleen, and little Peter, express their deep attachment and sadness over her departure. The opening scene paints a vivid picture of a loving household, highlighting the children's personalities, the looming uncertainty of their father's health, and their mutual support. As the storyline unfolds, readers are introduced to the family's dynamics and the emotional turmoil they face, setting the stage for further exploration of the relationships within this affectionate family unit.
