Summary "Witch Winnie's Mystery, or The Old Oak Cabinet: The Story of a King's Daughter" by Elizabeth W. Champney is a novel written in the late 19th century. It narrates the adventures of a group of girls at a boarding school, focusing particularly on their energetic friend Winnie, whose mischievous yet charming personality leads to various escapades. At its core, the story explores themes of friendship, responsibility, and the dilemmas faced by young women navigating their lives and social relations in a structured setting. The opening of the book introduces us to the main characters, a tight-knit group collectively known as the "Amen Corner," who have their lives intertwined through school activities and charity work. As the story unfolds, the friendships among the girls are tested by the arrival of a new student and the subsequent tensions that arise. The central plot conflict revolves around a theft that raises suspicions among the friends, creating an atmosphere of intrigue and prompting the reader to question loyalties. Winnie's bold nature is highlighted as she leads her friends into both playful and contentious situations, setting the stage for a delightful combination of mystery and character growth.
