Summary "Helvi: Kertomus nuorisolle" by Hilja Haahti is a coming-of-age novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Helvi, a young girl navigating her new life as she transitions to school in Helsinki, leaving behind her rural upbringing. The themes of friendship, social dynamics, and personal growth are central as Helvi encounters challenges, new friendships, and the pressures of fitting in. The opening of the book introduces Helvi on her first day at a new school. She is excited about a new white apron her mother made for her, but also nervous about starting in a large class where she feels out of place, especially as she’s the only new student. As she arrives at school, her apprehension is palpable, and she struggles with feelings of inadequacy compared to her peers. However, an unexpected act of kindness from a classmate named Irja helps ease her anxiety, giving Helvi a glimpse of the friendships that await her, while also introducing her to a world that is both thrilling and intimidating.
