'Kinderen uit m'n Klas' Summary
The book “Kinderen uit m’n Klas” by Paulina Jacoba Cohen-de Vries is a collection of intimate portraits of children attending a folk school in the Netherlands during the early 1920s. Originally published in the NRC newspaper, the book features short, descriptive sketches of each child. These sketches offer a glimpse into the everyday lives of these children - their personalities, their relationships, and their hopes for the future. The author's keen observations and warm writing style bring these children to life. Each sketch is accompanied by an illustration by the author, adding another layer of depth and understanding to the portraits. Through the eyes of these children, Cohen-de Vries provides a unique and valuable window into the social history of the Netherlands in the early 20th century. The book is a testament to the enduring power of childhood and a celebration of the simple joys and challenges of growing up.Book Details
