Hubert van Beusekom, A. (Anna) 1882-1926 creator Leeuwen, Nans van 1900-1995 text utu 2026 Tweede druk. monographic nl 1 online resource : multiple file formats "Opa en Ineke" by A. Hubert van Beusekom is a collection of children's stories written in the early 20th century. The title tale follows Ineke, a convalescent girl spending months with her grandfather in the Dutch countryside, where she navigates school, friendship, and the pull between fun and duty. Its warm, domestic scenes and gentle moral arc (honesty, perseverance, consideration for elders) make it inviting for young readers who enjoy character-centered everyday adventures. The volume also includes a second, shorter story about a city girl, Wiesje, savoring a first stay with country relatives. The opening of the book presents Ineke at home after an illness, then setting off alone by train to her grandfather’s house, Eiken-rode. A plan is made for her to attend the village school in the mornings and rest in the afternoons; she blossoms amid gardens, dogs, and new friends Freda and Hans, yet her play begins to crowd out study. After a carefree afternoon wading a brook for flowers ends in a storm and a poor mid-month report, she tearfully confesses to her grandfather, agrees to attend school full days, and works hard—earning an excellent final list and a promised kitten. The text then shifts to the start of the second story, where Wiesje wakes early in a guest room, revels in the garden and animals, and slips into cheerful play with her cousins.
