Summary "Flaxie Growing Up" by Sophie May is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. The story explores the everyday life and growth of a young girl named Flaxie Frizzle, who is navigating her responsibilities and relationships with her family and friends. As Flaxie learns about discipline, companionship, and the challenges of growing up, readers are invited into her world filled with innocent mischief and heartfelt moments. The opening of the book introduces us to Flaxie's family dynamics, particularly her relationship with her younger sister Ethel and her responsibilities as a caretaker while their mother is ill. Flaxie experiences the pressures of maturity, dealing with feelings of authority and responsibility while attempting to manage Ethel's misbehavior. The interactions among the siblings and their friends showcase childhood innocence, with Flaxie's attempts to discipline Ethel presenting both humorous and challenging situations.
