"What Two Children Did" by Charlotte E. Chittenden is a children's fiction book written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around two sisters, Ethelwyn and Beth, as they embark on various adventures and musings, highlighting themes of childhood innocence, curiosity, and the bond between siblings. Against a backdrop of summer activities at the seashore, the book illustrates their simple, yet profound interactions with their mother and the world around them.
At the start of the narrative, we find Ethelwyn and Beth traveling by train with their mother, who is preoccupied with her thoughts. The children, noticing their mother's furrowed brow, worry that they are the cause of her distress due to past mischief. As they indulge in a feast of sandwiches and cookies, they ponder deep questions about mistakes and the nature of God. This opening segment sets the stage for their character development, showcasing the children's playful spirits and desire to please their mother while navigating their own understanding of the complexities of life. Their summer journey introduces them to new friends, responsibilities, and opportunities to help others in need, laying the groundwork for further adventures to unfold.
