Though interest in girls' school stories waned after World War II, her books remained popular until the 1960s. They were seen as disruptive and a negative influence on moral standards by some figures in authority during the height of their popularity, and in some cases were banned, or indeed burned, by headmistresses in British girls' schools. iBoo World's Classics iBoo Press House uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work.

Book excerpt: "We need only walk for five minutes along the road, and then turn into the path through the wood," suggested Aldred. "There's a field of cut corn in front of the cottage; you could sit on the corn and read if you like.""Not half so cool as here.""Oh, Keith, you might be nice when it's holidays!" pleaded Aldred. "It's the only time I ever have anybody to go about with. I'm sure I do heaps of things for you; I was playing cricket with you all morning, wasn't I?""Yes, and a precious butterfingers you were, too. There, then, you needn't look so blue! I'll go, but on the one condition that you let me read in peace and quiet, and don't bother.""I won't say a single word, if you don't want to talk. I'll be absolutely dumb andmum!""Well, I hardly believe you'll be able to hold your tongue to that extent. I'll allow you an occasional remark, but you mustn't keep up a continual flow of conversation. Where's my straw hat?-it's too hot for a cap. I think I'm an absolute saint to turn out on such a blazing afternoon!"Having gained her point, Aldred ran readily enough to fetch her brother's hat, and set off with him down the drive in a state of beaming satisfaction.Dingfield, the place where they lived, though only an hour's distance from London, was sufficiently in the country to afford a pleasant prospect of trees, meadows, and winding reaches of river. The hedgerows were thick with twining bryony and feathery traveller's joy; here and there the hips were reddening, and a ripe blackberry or two tempted them to linger upon the way. It was cooler than Keith had anticipated, for a fresh breeze was blowing from the Surrey Hills, sending white clouds in long streamers across the blue of the sky, and shaking down a few windfalls from the apple trees that overhung Farmer Walton's gate.The two soon left the high road, and, after strolling leisurely through the welcome shade of the wood, climbed over a stile into a pasture, and after another five minutes' walking found themselves in a stubble field, within sight of the river. Here was the subject upon which Aldred had determined to try her brush. It was a picturesque old cottage, with red-tiled roof, lattice windows, a porch wreathed in purple clematis, and a garden gay with dahlias, looking attractive enough in the September sunshine to make even an amateur wish to commit its beauties to paper.Aldred chose her point of view with great deliberation, and considerable taste for a girl of only fourteen.

Book excerpt: "A Fourth Form Friendship" by Angela Brazil is an enchanting novel that delves into the lives of young students as they navigate the complexities of school life, develop close bonds of friendship, and embark on a journey of personal growth and self-discovery. Set in the backdrop of a prestigious boarding school, the story follows a group of students who find themselves in the fourth form, a pivotal stage in their education. The term "Fourth Form" refers to a specific year or grade level in the school, suggesting that this is a crucial period for the characters' academic and personal development. At the heart of the narrative is a profound friendship that blossoms among the central characters. As they face academic challenges, engage in extracurricular activities, and navigate the intricacies of school hierarchy, their bond strengthens and deepens. The novel portrays the transformative power of friendship and the ways in which it can shape individuals' lives. Throughout the story, readers are treated to a vivid portrayal of the boarding school environment, including classrooms, dormitories, and communal spaces. The challenges and triumphs experienced by the characters are intertwined with their daily interactions, providing insight into their growth and evolution. The novel likely explores themes such as camaraderie, loyalty, resilience, and the importance of mutual support. As the characters support each other through academic endeavors and personal struggles, they learn valuable life lessons that extend beyond the classroom. The term "friendship" in the title suggests that the characters' connection is at the heart of the narrative. Their interactions, shared experiences, and emotional journeys create a rich tapestry that underscores the transformative nature of their time in the fourth form. As the characters navigate the academic demands of the fourth form and grapple with their own aspirations and challenges, they undergo significant personal growth. The term becomes a period of not only academic learning but also of self-discovery, as the characters come to understand themselves and each other more deeply.

"I want to make a sketch of old Mrs. Barker's cottage," she replied. "The clematis is out over the porch, and it looks lovely. I heard Mr. Bowden say yesterday that it was a splendid subject. Don't you remember, he made a picture of it last year?" "So he did, and a jolly good one too. Yours won't be anything like up to that, Sis!" "I dare say not, but you needn't discourage me from trying, at any rate." "Oh, I'm not discouraging you. Go by all means, and good luck to your efforts! You can show me the masterpiece when you come back;" and the boy, flinging his legs over one arm of the chair, settled himself in an even more inelegant and reposeful attitude than before, and plunged again into the fascinating adventures of Captain Kettle. That, however, did not at all content his sister.

Download or read book The New Girl at St Chad s A School Story written by Angela Brazil and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The New Girl at St. Chad's” is a 1912 fictional story by English writer Angela Brazil. Another charming and entertaining school girls' tale by one of the creators of the genre, this is a volume that would be perfect young girls at boarding school and fans of vintage girls' literature. Angela Brazil (1868 – 1947) was an English author most famous for being one of the first writers of "modern schoolgirls' stories". Her stories were presented from the characters' point of view and were written primarily as entertainment rather than moral instruction. During the first half of the 20th century, Brazil published nearly 50 such books, with the vast majority being set in English boarding schools. Brazil's work had a significant influence on changing the nature of fiction for girls. Her charters were chiefly young females, active, independent, and aware. Brazil's books were often considered to be immoral and deviant, leading to their being burned or banned by many Headteachers in girls schools across Britain. Other notable works by this author include: “The School in the Forest” (1944), “Three Terms at Uplands” (1945), “The School on the Loch” (1946). Contents include: “Honor's Home”, “The Wearing of the Green”, “Janie's Charge”, “A Riding Lesson”, “The Lower Third”, “St. Chad's Celebrates an Occasion”, “Honor Finds Favour”, “A Relapse”, “St. Kolgan's Abbey”, “Miss Maitland's Window”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
