Summary "Eric" by S. B. C. Samuels is a children's narrative fiction written in the late 19th century. The story is part of the "Springdale Stories" series and follows the adventures of a young boy named Eric Hyde, who travels through Europe with his friends. The narrative centers on themes of friendship, honesty, and discovery, particularly highlighting Eric's brave underwater exploration experience. The opening of "Eric" introduces readers to the picturesque setting of Castle Wernier in Olendorf, where Eric spends a joyful summer with his friends. As they prepare for their imminent parting, the children reminisce about their adventures while witnessing the antics of a mischievous pet monkey named Froll. The chapter establishes the close bonds between the characters as they navigate their emotions about leaving each other and embarking on new journeys.
