| Summary | "Georgina of the Rainbows" by Annie F. Johnston is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story introduces us to Georgina Huntingdon, a young girl living in a quaint seaside town, where her experiences of growing up are filled with whimsical adventures, familial relationships, and lessons learned through her interactions with those around her. At the start of the story, we meet Georgina as a toddler, recalling the startling memory of old Jeremy Clapp's sneeze that caused his false teeth to fly into the fire, marking the beginning of her very first memories. The scene unfolds in a domestic setting where Mrs. Triplett, the family's housekeeper, tends to her. From her highchair, Georgina observes her surroundings with childlike curiosity and is comforted by the presence of the Towncrier, an old man who brings stories and companionship, echoing themes of memory and safety. The opening sets the tone for a story of childhood wonder, exploring Georgina's developing identity as she navigates her new environment filled with warmth, humor, and the beginnings of friendships with characters like Richard, a boy who shares her thirst for adventure.
