Book Cover of Three People

Three People

by Pansy (Isabella Macdonald Alden)

Three boys in very different home environments start life on the same day: the pampered Pliny Hastings, the solidly brought-up Benny Phillips, and the uneducated street scamp Theodore “Tode” Mall. Their lives intertwine around the issue of "rum" and a dying mother's prayer for her little boy. A classic Pansy book with a strong temperance message.
