Résumé

"Princess Polly's Playmates" by Amy Brooks is a charming narrative that revolves around the adventures and friendships of a young girl named Polly Sherwood, affectionately known as Princess Polly. The story begins with Polly and her friends, Vivian and Leslie, engaging in imaginative play and discussing the enchanting Sherwood Hall, which they liken to a fairy-tale castle. Polly receives a letter from her dear friend Rose Atherton, who has moved away to live with her Great-Aunt Rose. Rose expresses her loneliness and invites Polly to visit her, which excites Polly immensely. The narrative shifts to Polly's visit to Rose, where she is warmly welcomed by Rose and her Great-Aunt. Polly is enchanted by the grandeur of the old mansion and the portraits that seem to come alive. The two friends enjoy their time together, exploring the garden and sharing stories. They encounter Evangeline Longfellow Jenks, a peculiar girl with aspirations of becoming a poet, whose humorous verses add a touch of whimsy to the story. Meanwhile, back in Polly's hometown, a mischievous boy named Gyp causes trouble, but also shows a softer side when he helps little Dollie Burton find her lost doll. This act of kindness reveals that even those perceived as nuisances can have redeeming qualities. The story highlights themes of friendship, bravery, and the joy of imagination, as Polly and her friends navigate their adventures with warmth and humor.
