Summary "Little Nettie; or, Home Sunshine" by Susan Warner and Anna Bartlett Warner is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around a young girl named Nettie Mathieson, who navigates the challenges of a difficult home life characterized by her father's irresponsible behavior and her mother's exhaustion. Throughout the novel, themes of faith, resilience, and the power of love shine through Nettie's unwavering spirit as she strives to support her family despite their hardships. At the start of the narrative, we meet Nettie and her mother during a mundane task of fetching water from a spring, illustrating their humble living conditions. As they return home, we gain insight into the family's struggles. Mrs. Mathieson expresses her weariness, while young Nettie maintains a hopeful attitude, sweetly singing about rest available in Christ. The dynamics within the household are quickly established, showcasing the burdens placed upon Nettie, who juggles chores and her desire to care for her mother. The reader is introduced to some of the joys and responsibilities Nettie faces, setting the stage for her journey of perseverance and growth in the face of adversity.
