The Rebellious School-Girl; A Tale

By Mary Hughs and Hughs Mrs. (Mary)

Book Overview

A spark of defiance can change everything. In the tightly laced world of nineteenth-century Britain, one spirited schoolgirl dares to test the boundaries of boarding school discipline and social expectation. The Rebellious School-Girl; A Tale by Mary Hughes stands as a classic girls school story, capturing the transformative power of friendship, courage, and moral lessons within the walls of a Victorian girls' academy. Set in the heart of Victorian England, this complete unabridged edition immerses readers in a world where youthful mischief collides with the rigours of education and the subtle codes of conduct that shaped a generation. Hughes's rebellious schoolgirl heroine is both a product of her time and a quietly radical figure, whose journey through the trials of school life echoes the charm and wit beloved in Enid Blyton and Angela Brazil school stories. The narrative explores themes of loyalty, personal growth, and the forging of character, making it a touchstone of Victorian juvenile fiction and middle grade classic fiction alike. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. For those enchanted by public domain classic tales and the evocative settings of historic boarding schools, The Rebellious School-Girl offers a rare glimpse into the hopes and challenges of young women in a bygone era. Whether you are discovering this cultural treasure for the first time or returning to a beloved story, this edition invites you to experience the timeless appeal of resilience, friendship, and the courage to stand apart.
