Summary "The Haven Children; or, Frolics at the Funny Old House on Funny Street" by Emilie Foster is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. This whimsical tale follows the adventures of the Haven family, particularly focusing on the mischievous and joyous escapades of the children, including Artie, Daisy, and their siblings, as they navigate life in their charming old house on Funny Street. The story explores themes of childhood innocence, family bonds, and the joy of simple pleasures. The opening of the book introduces us to Daisy Havens, who is awakened by her brother Artie's excited call about a surprise awaiting them in the nursery. As the morning unfolds, we see the lively and chaotic atmosphere filled with the children's antics, a menagerie of playful pets, and the promises of fun ahead. The children are quickly drawn into a flurry of preparations as they anticipate a family trip to visit their Aunt Emma in Providence, revealing their close-knit family dynamic and setting the stage for the adventures that will follow in their journey to the country. The combination of imagination, sibling love, and the familiarity of home creates an inviting atmosphere for readers. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
