By Kathleen Thompson Norris

Book Overview

""Harriet and the Piper"" is a children's book written by Kathleen Norris. The story revolves around a young girl named Harriet, who lives in a small village. One day, while exploring the woods, she meets a mysterious piper who enchants her with his music. The piper promises to take Harriet on a magical adventure, but she must keep it a secret from everyone else. As they journey through enchanted forests and meet fantastical creatures, Harriet begins to realize the true nature of the piper's intentions. With the help of her friends and family, Harriet must find a way to escape the piper's grasp and return home safely. The book is filled with whimsical illustrations and is a delightful read for children who enjoy tales of adventure and magic.Harriet's heart ached deeply for them all as she watched the Jersey marshes from the car window a few hours later. The poor little pretty girls, gallantly soaking their small hands in dishwater and lye, eager over the church production of ""Robin Hood"" and a picnic with Uncle David at Asbury Josephine was to be a stenographer when she finished High School, and little Julia had expressed an angelic ambition to teach a kindergarten class some day. Nina, at their ages, had had her pony, her finishing school, her little silk stockings, and her monogrammed ivory toilet set, her trip to England and France and Italy with her mother and brother and grandmother.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
