| Summary | "The Angel Children" by Charlotte M. Higgins is a collection of children's stories written in the mid-19th century. The stories explore themes of innocence, compassion, and the interactions between children from different backgrounds. The main narratives revolve around children navigating their emotions, relationships, and experiences in both the earthly realm and a more spiritual dimension. At the start of the collection, the story "Hepsa and Genevieve" introduces us to two young girls from drastically different circumstances. Genevieve is a well-cared-for girl who longs for a sibling, while Hepsa is a less fortunate child dealing with a troubled home life. Their encounter leads to a heartfelt exchange about love, compassion, and the existence of God, illustrating the impact of friendship across social divides. As Genevieve teaches Hepsa about reading and the importance of familial love, we glimpse the transformative power of kindness and understanding, setting the tone for the poignant, moral tales that follow in this enchanting volume.
