In this 1765 printing of her 1749 original, Sarah Fielding (1710–68) traces the development of nine girls under the guidance of their governess, Mrs Teachum. The first English novel intended for children, the book attempts to encourage young women to pursue lives of virtue, friendship and benevolence.
