Hodgkin is a collection of stories aimed primarily at children, written in the early 20th century. The book recounts the lives and teachings of notable early Quaker figures, often highlighting their struggles, perseverance, and faith amidst persecution. This work is particularly focused on conveying moral and spiritual lessons through the stories of these "Quaker Saints." The opening of the book introduces young Lois, who, while visiting a relative, begins to ponder the nature of saints after being confused by a beautiful stained glass image during a church service. As she reflects on her questions, she explores the concept of being a saint, longing to understand what makes someone worthy of such a title. The text reveals her inquisitive nature, her observations of church life, and her struggles to find relatable answers from the adults around her. This sets the stage for a series of narratives that seek to illuminate the qualities and experiences of the early Quaker saints, delivering lessons on bravery, faith, and inner light as understood through George Fox's teachings and other historical figures.
