About this eBook

Author Abbott, Jacob, 1803-1879
Title Rollo at Work
Summary "Rollo at Work" by Jacob Abbott is a children's fiction work written in the mid-19th century. This book is part of the Rollo series, designed to engage young readers while teaching valuable lessons about industry and responsibility through the character Rollo. The story likely follows Rollo's adventures as he learns the importance of hard work and the sensible approach to play and responsibility. The opening of the book introduces Rollo, a young boy who is eager to work in his garden but struggles with distractions and the concept of industriousness. As he begins planting beans and tending to his garden, he encounters various challenges, including a young colt that initially frightens him and the distractions of play. Rollo's interactions with his father and friends reveal his desire to learn how to work effectively, leading to humorous misadventures as he tries different methods of managing his tasks. These early experiences set the tone for Rollo's journey toward becoming a more industrious and responsible character throughout the narrative. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
