| 520 | _a"The Christmas Earnings: Or, Ethel Fletcher's Temptation" by Lucy Ellen Guernsey is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The story centers around Ethel Fletcher, a young girl grappling with her family's recent financial struggles and their impact on traditional Christmas celebrations. Throughout the narrative, Ethel navigates her feelings of disappointment, the temptation to act dishonestly, and her desire to find a way to contribute to her family's holiday spirit. At the start of the book, Ethel's cousin Abby prompts her to consider how to make money for Christmas gifts, which brings Ethel's awareness of her family’s diminished circumstances to the forefront. Ethel reflects on her father's financial failure and her family's previous affluence, leading her to feel unsatisfied and frustrated by their current situation. The characters are introduced as Ethel has a tense exchange with her Aunt Sally, who often expresses harsh opinions about Ethel's father, highlighting Ethel's internal conflict between honoring family connections and standing up for her father. As she desires to help her family, Ethel begins to explore ways to earn money through painting, setting the stage for her journey of self-discovery and moral growth.
