"The Key to Betsy's Heart" by Sarah Noble Ives is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around a young girl named Betsy, who finds herself uprooted from her familiar life after her father's sudden disappearance and her mother's illness. She is sent to live with her distant relatives, Aunt Kate and Uncle Ben, where she must navigate her new surroundings and learn the ways of her new life, all while carrying the weight of her past with her. At the start of the narrative, Betsy grapples with profound changes in her life after her father's abandonment and her mother's declining health lead her to move to a grand new home with Aunt Kate. The opening chapters introduce Betsy's mixed emotions as she arrives at her new residence, full of both anxiety and a glimmer of hope for a different life. We also see her interactions with her new relatives, the love they show, and the tough lessons she must learn regarding self-respect and manners. Through it all, the character of a new puppy named Van emerges, serving as a pivotal figure in Betsy’s emotional growth, helping her to open her heart and adapt to her new circumstances.
