provided by the Internet Archive  a"Little Homespun" by Ruth Ogden is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. This charming story revolves around the adventures of a young boy named Howard Ellis, affectionately known as Brevet, who aspires to be a soldier, as well as his interactions with his grandmother and a variety of friends in a warm Virginia setting. The book seems to combine themes of friendship, courage, and the joy of childhood, interlacing historical elements that inform the characters' experiences.  At the start of the story, we are introduced to Brevet, who is deeply cherished by his grandmother, as they enjoy a sunny June morning at their homestead. Within the opening chapters, Brevet prepares for a delightful visit to Arlington, accompanied by Captain Joe, a former soldier and family friend. The narrative paints a vivid picture of the friendship between Brevet and Joe, highlighting the child’s imagination, innocence, and respect for the past, including the legacies of those who came before him. Through Brevet's adventures and the characters he encounters, the foundation is set for a tale that promises warmth and life lessons as the story unfolds.
