"Sir Gibbie" by George MacDonald is a novel published in 1879 that follows a mute, destitute boy in Scotland who rises from poverty while maintaining extraordinary Christian virtue. Despite an alcoholic father, dangerous companions, and harsh punishments for his good deeds, Gibbie embodies selfless service to others. Written in Scottish Doric dialect, the novel presents its protagonist as both a Christ-like figure and a model of Christian obedience, offering a rags-to-riches story where spiritual integrity matters more than worldly success.
