About this book
Set "in a retired hamlet on the borders of Wales, between Oswestry and Shrewsbury," Simple Susan is a juvenile fiction children's story from Maria Edgeworth's "The Parent's Assistant" about the conduct of life. The story follows the litigious habits and suspicious temper of the attorney, Mr. Case and his children, and the habits and countenance of his simple and peaceable neighbors, the family of Farmer Price. Timeless lessons for children are drawn for the rich and the poor, the powerful and the weak, and everyone in between. (Summary by Lori Arsenault)
