The story revolves around the Morandi family, particularly focusing on the eldest daughter, Maria, who takes on the role of caregiver and educator for her five younger siblings after the death of their mother. The book likely explores themes of family responsibility, personal sacrifice, and the lessons learned through everyday experiences. The opening portion introduces the Morandi family as they navigate their lives in Milan while yearning for the simplicity and health benefits of countryside living. After their father, a railway employee, is burdened by the loss of his wife, Maria steps up to manage the household, caring for her energetic siblings. Throughout this initial setup, the family dynamics are established, showcasing Maria’s determination to ensure her siblings are nurtured and educated.
