Omschrijving

A gentle invitation to meet a world tucked between cosy pages and quiet morals. Careless Jane And Other Tales gathers Katharine Pyle's illustrated short stories into a warm, enduring collection that feels both antique and astonishingly immediate. These tales-crafted in the shadow of pre war America-blend family life, everyday virtue, and small, humane adventures. The stories sing with illustration and sentiment, offering readers a window into early twentieth century American children's literature that respects young readers and the adults who cherish them. It is not merely a reprint but a restoration that honours Pyle's voice, her art, and the gentle ethics that thread through each carefully observed moment. Historically, the work holds a venerable place in the canon of classic short stories, preserving a cherished era while resonating with modern readers who seek thoughtful, moral narratives and beautifully drawn illustrations. For casual readers, it is a soothing, readable entry into a bygone world; for collectors, it is a rare and culturally valuable artefact now renewed by Alpha Editions. This edition is more than a collection; it is a treasure for gift-givers, classroom discussion, and thoughtful evenings alike. The stories reward patient reading and sustained reflection, inviting conversations about kindness, responsibility, and the quirks of family life-perfect for those who love cherished, cozy vintage fiction and a solid, comforting moral centre.
