Sinopse

In "The Boys and I," Mrs. Molesworth delivers a captivating narrative that intertwines the themes of childhood adventure and the complexities of gender roles during the late Victorian era. With her distinctive literary style, characterized by richly detailed imagery and a warm, conversational tone, Molesworth invites readers into the whimsical world of young boys and their escapades, drawing on both humor and sentimentality. The novel deftly critiques societal expectations while celebrating the spirit of youth and camaraderie, making it a cornerstone work of children's literature in its time. Mrs. Molesworth, born in 1839, was a notable author of children'Äôs literature, known for her keen insight into the psyches of young readers. Her background as the daughter of a prominent family and her experiences in child-rearing profoundly influenced her writing. Molesworth was particularly motivated to depict the lives of children, countering the prevalent notions of their fragility, thereby fostering a sense of agency and resilience among her young protagonists. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in the evolution of children's literature or the portrayal of childhood in historical contexts. It not only entertains but also educates, making it a delightful addition to the library of both young readers and those passionate about literary history.

A very slightly updated version of the traditional Norwegian folk tale from Andrew Lang's Blue Fairy Book from 1889. The Blue Fairy Book was the first of 12 Fairy Books to be written and published in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and, though Lang is credited as the creator of these books, it is worth noting that almost all of the actual translation and writing of the stories was done by others - most notably his wife, Nora. 
This story is classified as ATU 425A in the ATU tale type classification system, which is the “Search for the Lost Husband” type.
