Publisher's Synopsis

""A Living Story Or The Would-Be Authoress: A Tale For Boys And Girls"" is a children's book written by A. W. Wright and first published in 1888. The story follows the adventures of a young girl named Edith, who dreams of becoming a successful author. Edith's father is a wealthy businessman who disapproves of her literary aspirations, and instead wants her to focus on more practical pursuits. Undeterred, Edith sets out to write a novel and enlists the help of a group of children who become her characters. As she writes, Edith discovers that her characters are coming to life and she must navigate the challenges of being a writer and a caretaker to her living creations. Along the way, Edith learns valuable lessons about determination, creativity, and the power of imagination.
