About this book
Daisy by Susan Warner is a tender, faith-steeped coming-of-age novel that traces a young girl's moral and spiritual awakening in mid-19th-century America. Part fiction, part devotional portrait, Warner—writing as Elizabeth Wetherell—offers richly observed domestic scenes, schoolroom drama, and quiet moments of prayer that shaped Victorian-era religious and literary sensibilities.
As Daisy grows, the narrative explores themes of conscience, obedience, friendship, and the sustaining power of belief, all rendered with the sentimental warmth and moral earnestness popular in nineteenth-century literature. Readers encounter vivid portraits of family life, community rituals, and the small struggles that define adolescence, told with compassion rather than judgment. The novel’s gentle pacing and introspective voice make it as much about inner formation as outward events.
Ideal for fans of classic literature, teen/young adult historical fiction, and faith-centered stories, Daisy invites listeners who appreciate character-driven narratives and moral reflection. Listen for a soothing, instructive tale that offers both historical context and timeless insight into growing up with conviction and kindness.
