A Little Girl of Long Ago; Or, Hannah Ann by Amanda M. Douglas

"A Little Girl of Long Ago; Or, Hannah Ann" by Amanda M. Douglas is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. This charming sequel to "A Little Girl in Old New York" follows the life of young Hannah Ann Underhill as she navigates her childhood in a rapidly changing New York City. The story explores themes of family, friendship, and the wonder of growing up with a focus on the daily activities and social interactions of children during that era. The opening of the novel introduces us to Hannah Ann at the beginning of the year 1846 as she engages in playful conversations about the future with her family and peers, reflecting on their imaginations and aspirations. The chapter paints a vivid picture of domestic life, societal norms, and the influence of events happening around them, including the excitement surrounding concerts and social gatherings. Hannah's curiosity and innocence are palpable as she grapples with delightful yet profound observations about life, her family, and the world.
