First published in 1917, Understood Betsy by Dorothy Canfield Fisher is a charming little novel that has become a lasting classic of children’s literature.
The story follows Elizabeth Ann - known as Betsy - a timid orphan raised by well-meaning but fearful relatives who convince her she is fragile and helpless.
When she is sent to live with her Aunt Abigail and Uncle Henry on a Vermont farm, everything changes. Instead of constant worry, Betsy finds fresh air, hard work and adults who trust her to manage life for herself. Slowly she discovers confidence, resilience and good judgement.
Beloved for its warmth, humour and deep respect for children, Understood Betsy has endured for generations. Its celebration of independence, common sense and learning through experience helped secure its place as a classic - one that continues to feel fresh, reassuring and quietly radical today, more than a century later...!
