This short narrative reflects moral lessons aimed at young readers, focusing on themes of kindness, compassion, and the importance of faith and obedience to God. It likely serves as a tale to encourage children to engage with good deeds and virtuous behavior, reinforcing the values taught in Sunday Schools of the time. The book tells the story of a young girl named Susan, who discovers a weak lamb abandoned by a shepherd.
