Summary

Sophie May'Äôs "Little Pitchers: Flaxie Frizzle Stories" embarks on a whimsical journey into the life of Flaxie Frizzle, a spirited young girl whose adventures vividly capture the essence of childhood. Composed in a charming, accessible prose style, May employs rich descriptions and lively dialogue to immerse readers in Flaxie'Äôs world, touching upon themes of friendship, curiosity, and the trials of growing up. Within the broader context of 19th-century children'Äôs literature, May's work stands out for its ability to delicately balance humor and moral lessons, often reflecting the societal expectations of young girls during this period while still allowing for imaginative exploration and personal growth. Sophie May, a prominent figure in children'Äôs literature, wrote under a pseudonym and was influenced by her own experiences of childhood and education. A native of the American Northeast, May was dedicated to portraying relatable characters and realistic scenarios in her stories, fostering a connection between young readers and the narratives they encountered. Her passion for educating children can be felt throughout "Little Pitchers," showcasing her belief in the transformative power of books. I wholeheartedly recommend "Little Pitchers: Flaxie Frizzle Stories" to anyone interested in classic children'Äôs literature or seeking an entertaining yet meaningful read for young audiences. May'Äôs ability to captivate imaginations while imparting invaluable life lessons makes this collection an enriching addition to both personal and educational libraries.

    Little Miss Muffet Sat on a tuffet, Eating of curds and whey. There came a great spider and sat down beside her and frightened Miss Muffet away.    
    This odd little nursery rhyme is familiar to us all but have you ever wondered, like I have, about what Miss Muffet was thinking as she sat dreamily eating her curds and whey?  And what are curds and whey, anyway? Her tuffet?  would that be a piece of furniture or a piece of her anatomy?  And of course the large spider, what was she thinking? I'll bet she was as scared as Miss Muffet !!   
      Well, Frank Baum, the beloved author of the Wizard of Oz series, finally tells us the whole story about Miss Muffet and her little known struggle for freedom from the many nursemaids who watched her constantly.  True, her parents were very rich but their sad little girl, Muffet, was never allowed to do anything fun at all like run in the grass or play in the mud as she longed to do.  Will she succeed? Listen and find out.
