1852
Jacob Abbott
1852
A children's story written in the mid-19th century. This book introduces young readers to the adventures and experiences of Caleb, a sickly boy who spends the summer at his grandmother's house in the country. The narrative is designed not just for entertainment but aims to develop children's moral and intellectual faculties while providing insights into Christian values. The beginning of ''Caleb in the Country'' sets the stage for Caleb's summer escapades as he discovers the beauty and intricacies of nature around him. Staying with his grandmother, he explores his new environment, engages in playful interactions, and grapples with lessons tied to obedience and moral conduct. Through his encounters with various characters, including his grandmother and the local boys, coupled with activities like building a mole and discovering a mysterious bear (which turns out to be a cow), the story weaves together themes of curiosity, misunderstanding, and personal growth in a gentle, nurturing setting.
