N2  - "The Dorrance Domain" by Carolyn Wells is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows the Dorrance family, particularly four lively siblings—Dorothy, Lilian, Leicester, and Fairy—as they transition from their cramped boarding-house life in Manhattan to their newly acquired family hotel, The Dorrance Domain, located by a lake in New Jersey. The narrative captures their adventures and challenges as they adapt to their new surroundings and management of the hotel.  The beginning of the book introduces the Dorrance children, expressing their frustrations with living in a boarding-house and their desire for freedom and space. Dorothy leads the way with a grand plan to spend the summer at their hotel property, which they refer to as "Our Domain." Excitement and a sense of adventure fill the air as they contemplate their move, interact with their kind but quirky neighbor Mr. Hickox, and prepare for their first home-cooked meal in their new environment. This opening portion sets a light-hearted tone that blends family dynamics with themes of exploration and the joys of childhood. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
