Summary "Robin Redbreast: A Story for Girls" by Mrs. Molesworth is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around young girls navigating their lives, relationships, and friendships in a quaint countryside setting. The story particularly follows Jacinth and Frances Mildmay, sisters who have recently moved into the care of their aunt after the death of their grandmother. At the start of the book, the Mildmay sisters, accompanied by their younger brother Eugene and their uncle Marmy, arrive in Thetford to live with their aunt Alison, who is portrayed as kind yet distant. The opening introduces the house they will reside in and highlights their feelings of loneliness in their new life, as they navigate the challenges of being away from their previous home at Stannesley. A significant moment occurs when the children encounter an enigmatic old lady living in an intriguing house called "Robin Redbreast," stirring curiosity and foreshadowing future connections that may develop.
