Eric Wiggin, a great-nephew of the author, wrote updated versions of several Rebecca books, including a concluding story. The story was adapted for the theatrical stage and filmed three times, once with Shirley Temple in the title role.The novel opens with Rebecca's journey from her family's farm to Riverboro to live with her two aunts, her mother's older sisters Miranda and Jane Sawyer. Rebecca is the second-oldest of seven children. Most of the children have fanciful names, such as Marquis and Jenny Lind, influenced by their father's artistic background; Rebecca is named after both the heroines in Ivanhoe. The family is quite poor, due to the number of children, Mr. Lorenzo DeMedici Randall's inability to stick to a job, and the farm being mortgaged. As the novel begins, the family is barely scraping by three years after the father's death. Rebecca's stay with her aunts is a chance to improve her opportunities in life and to ease the strain on her family's budget. Despite her impoverished background, Rebecca is imaginative and charming. She often composes little poems and songs to express her feelings or to amuse her siblings. It is she who named their farm "Sunnybrook".

Book excerpt: Edition perfect as a gift. "Rebecca never stopped long to think, more 's the pity, so she put on her oldest dress and hat and jacket, then wrapped her nightdress, comb, and toothbrush in a bundle and dropped it softly out of the window. Her room was in the L and her window at no very dangerous distance from the ground, though had it been, nothing could have stopped her at that moment. Somebody who had gone on the roof to clean out the gutters had left a cleat nailed to the side of the house about halfway between the window and the top of the back porch. Rebecca heard the sound of the sewing machine in the dining-room and the chopping of meat in the kitchen; so knowing the whereabouts of both her aunts, she scrambled out of the window, caught hold of the lightning rod, slid down to the helpful cleat, jumped to the porch, used the woodbine trellis for a ladder, and was flying up the road in the storm before she had time to arrange any details of her future movements."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The old stage coach was rumbling along the dusty road that runs from Maplewood to Riverboro. The day was as warm as midsummer, though it was only the middle of May, and Mr. Jeremiah Cobb was favoring the horses as much as possible, yet never losing sight of the fact that he carried the mail. The hills were many, and the reins lay loosely in his hands as he lolled back in his seat and extended one foot and leg luxuriously over the dashboard. His brimmed hat of worn felt was well pulled over his eyes, and he revolved a quid of tobacco in his left cheek.There was one passenger in the coach, -a small dark-haired person in a glossy buff calico dress. She was so slender and so stiffly starched that she slid from space to space on the leather cushions, though she braced herself against the middle seat with her feet and extended her cotton-gloved hands on each side, in order to maintain some sort of balance

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm is a children's novel written by Kate Douglas Wiggin, published in 1903. A perpetual favorite and considered a classic of American children's literature, the book also captures a period in American history that is long past, making it a charming bit of time travel for modern readers.The story opens with Rebecca Randall bouncing along in a stagecoach as she travels to live with her Aunt Miranda and Aunt Jane in Riverboro, wearing a starched dress and a straw hat. As the stagecoach bounces, Rebecca finds it difficult to keep her seat and her balance. She has been sent to live with her aunts in the wake of her father's death a few years before, as her mother struggles to take care of her and her six siblings and pay the mortgage on her farm. Rebecca joins the driver, Mr. Cobb, at the front of the coach and strikes up a conversation, revealing that the goal is for her two aunts to educate her so she can assist her mother with supporting the rest of the family. She also knows that her aunts had preferred her older sister Hannah, because of her household skills, but Rebecca's mother kept Hannah for the same reason.Rebecca likes to make up songs and poems and stories; in fact, she made up the name Sunnybrook for her family's farm despite it being a very inaccurate name. When she arrives at her aunts' home, Aunt Miranda is immediately unimpressed with her. Miranda finds her imaginative and dreamy nature to be too much like her father, who struggled to hold employment and who Miranda thinks wasn't good enough for her sister, Rebecca's mother. She announces that she will train Rebecca to be a proper lady and a credit to the Sawyer side of the family. Aunt Jane is much softer and nicer, and is an ally for Rebecca. Rebecca settles in and finds the Sawyer house to be very orderly and lifeless. She begins taking lessons from Jane in how to sew, cook, and manage the house. While Jane praises Rebecca's efforts, Miranda is never satisfied, and always seems to disapprove of Rebecca's efforts. She declares that she is âe›all Randall and no Sawyer.' Miranda never hesitates to note the things Rebecca does wrong, such as leaving a door open or coming up the wrong stairs. Rebecca, who often acts without thinking, gives her stern aunt plenty of reasons to complain.Rebecca remains friendly with Mr. Cobb, who is always happy to see her, and meets his wife Sarah, who is equally smitten. Rebecca attends the local school and immediately becomes best friends with Emma Jane Perkins. She also meets her nemesis, a girl named Millie Smellie who she immediately takes a dislike to.At school a contest is announced: The students will sell soap in an effort to win a lamp for a poor family that needs all the help it can get. Emma and Rebecca go forth together to sell soap, and knock on the door of a local woman. The door is answered by Adam Ladd, a young businessman from the city who is visiting the woman, his aunt. He is charmed by Rebecca, who nicknames him Mr. Aladdin because of the connection to the lamp. Adam sees in Rebecca an intelligence he wishes to see fostered, and he takes an interest in her education.Rebecca slowly becomes one of the most popular girls in town. She is unusual, and says surprising things, but this is balanced by her charm and evident good heart--she always means well, and so even when she causes accidental distress, or ruins her dress, everyone knows she did not mean to cause harm intentionally.With Adam's help, Rebecca excels at school. She gains the opportunity to attend high school in Wareham, and as she approaches the age of eighteen, she aspires to become a teacher, and even applies for a position in Augusta. Her Aunt Miranda begins to show signs of approval and affection in her old age, being less strict and less critical of Rebecca as she grows into a lovely young woman.Just then, however, she hears news that her mother has had an accident and Rebecca must...
