The History of Little Goody Two-Shoes

90Living historically.

A story about a child with no house, and the house as the thing to be repaired.

The review

Margery Meanwell has one shoe. The book does not treat that as charm. A rich man buys the pair, and the rest of the story is that reading and work can move a child out of the ditch.

It is a moral tale, and it is still a child's story. The score is for taking an orphan seriously.

The glance

Industry is the thin one.

Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

The eight

9
Industry
Learning and labor are how she gets the second shoe, and then a life.
9
Household
The lack of a house is the problem. It is not a joke.
9
Piety
Virtue is the engine. A named creed is not.
9
Courage
She keeps at it without a parent to make her.
9
Republic
A neighborhood helps, and judges. The town is small.
9
Temperance
Want is not glamorized. The shoe is enough.
9
Truth
The moral is plain, and the story keeps it.
9
Stewardship
Meant to be read at night, by an older child to a younger one.

Cinderella

90Living historically.

The work and the test are worth keeping. The prize is a court, which is thinner than a house.

The review

This is the old tale, not a studio picture. Cinderella is the one who works. Her name in the story is an insult for the ash she sleeps in. The ball is not the moral. The moral is that the house has been using her, and a true claim can be tested.

Do not teach a child that a party and a stranger are the rescue. Teach the two parts that hold: do the work, and do not pretend to be someone you are not when the test comes. The court at the end is a thinner reward than the story thinks.

The eight

9
Industry
She does the housework the others will not do. The work is why she is who she is.
9
Household
A dead mother, a cruel stepmother, sisters as a warning. The marriage is a rescue.
9
Piety
The godmother is wonder. The older telling still carries a mother's care, not a sermon.
9
Courage
She goes to the ball against the house that keeps her down.
9
Republic
The reward is a court, not a town. Rank is the prize.
9
Temperance
Midnight is a limit, and she keeps it.
9
Truth
The shoe fits one person. A claim is tested instead of announced.
9
Stewardship
In the older telling she forgives the sisters. A house is gained. It is not built.
