About the author
Hesba Stretton
1832–1911
An evangelical English writer who became hugely popular for stories that mixed moral purpose with vivid portraits of poor and working-class children. Writing under the name Hesba Stretton, she helped shape Victorian children's fiction with books that aimed to stir both sympathy and social conscience.
