The Peppers have very little money, but they have affection, imagination, resilience, and a powerful belief in helping one another through hardship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirst published in 1881, Margaret Sidney's novel became the beginning of the beloved Five Little Peppers series and remained a favourite with generations of young readers. Its appeal lies in the balance between domestic realism and bright family feeling: illness, scarcity, work, worry, and danger are all present, but so are play, kindness, humour, and the children's determination to grow up well despite difficult circumstances. When the Pepper children's lives become connected with Jasper King and his wealthy grandfather, the story widens from the little brown house into a larger world of friendship, opportunity, and moral testing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis SMK edition is well suited for readers of classic children's fiction, family stories, sibling adventures, nineteenth-century juvenile literature, domestic fiction, and books in the tradition of \u003cem\u003eLittle Women\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eRebecca of Sunnybrook Farm\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003ePollyanna\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003cem\u003eFive Little Peppers and How They Grew\u003c\/em\u003e remains a generous, readable story about children shaped by love, poverty, work, and hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 186\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.56 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 03, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44414989172819,"sku":"9781515429494","price":46.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/9731\/2595\/files\/j9hVWSzcEd9781515429494.webp?v=1783972178","url":"https:\/\/the-stone-owl-bookstore.myshopify.com\/products\/five-little-peppers-and-how-they-grew-hardcover","provider":"The Stone Owl Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
