Carolyn of the sunny heart by Ruth Belmore Endicott
"Carolyn of the Sunny Heart" by Ruth Belmore Endicott is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a spirited little girl named Carolyn May Cameron, who navigates life in New York City with her dog, Prince. The narrative centers on Carolyn's interactions with various characters, particularly a pale lady and her baby, exploring themes of innocence, empathy, and adventure. At the start of the story, Carolyn enjoys
a lovely day in Central Park with her dog, where she encounters a pale lady and her thin baby. After an incident where a car nearly collides with them, a wealthy man gives Carolyn a $20 bill to pass on to the pale lady for a new baby carriage. This interaction sets off a chain of events as Carolyn becomes determined to help the lady, reflecting her generous and curious nature. The opening establishes Carolyn's character, her sense of wonder, and a budding friendship, as she wrestles with the complexities of kindness, poverty, and the understanding of grown-up issues amidst her youthful innocence.
