She used stories, incorporating current events and new inventions, to draw readers in and convey moral lessons, even from the most unexpected situations. Her works, often intended for young readers, shimmer with the appeal of an active mind that could find meaning in diverse aspects of life. Her literary legacy is being rediscovered for its unique approach to spiritual instruction.
