"Little Sunbeam" by Eleanora H. Stooke is a children's novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a young girl named Peggy Pringle, who is blind but has a joyful disposition despite her challenging circumstances. Through her explorations and experiences, including an accident that leads her to the care of new companions, the book explores themes of kindness, family, and acceptance. The opening portion of the novel introduces Peggy and her brother Billy as they navigate a busy London street on their way to buy buns for tea. The narrative quickly shifts to a dramatic moment when Peggy is struck by a horse during an attempt to cross the street, prompting a response from a crowd, including a sympathetic clergyman who helps her. Following the incident, Peggy regains consciousness at home, cared for by her mother and reflecting her loving nature despite her struggles. This initial glimpse into her life hints at her resilience and the affection within her family, setting the stage for Peggy's journey of healing and adventure ahead.
