Summary "Goody Two-Shoes" by Unknown is a children's story written in the late 19th century. The book narrates the uplifting tale of a kind and resourceful young girl named Margery Meanwell, who rises from a life of poverty and hardship to become a beloved schoolmistress. It explores themes of generosity, education, and the importance of kindness and community support. The story begins with the plight of Farmer Meanwell and his family, who suffer great misfortune, leaving Margery and her brother Tommy as orphans. After being cared for by a kind clergyman, Margery, who is nicknamed "Goody Two-Shoes" due to her new shoes, dedicates herself to learning and teaching others. Throughout her adventures, she befriends a raven and a pigeon, illustrates compassion by rescuing animals, and ultimately proves her worth as a teacher. Margery's life transforms as she is eventually married to Sir Charles Jones, highlighting her journey from an impoverished child to a respected educator and kind-hearted lady known for her charitable deeds.
