| Summary | "What Timmy Did" by Mrs. Belloc Lowndes is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the Tosswill family, particularly focusing on the peculiarities of their youngest member, Timmy, who possesses an uncanny gift that allows him to perceive things beyond the ordinary. As the family navigates changes in their financial circumstances and the return of Godfrey Radmore, a former friend with unresolved affections for one of the family members, the narrative unfolds layers of familial dynamics, past grievances, and emerging relationships. The opening of the novel introduces readers to the Tosswill household at Old Place, where Janet Tosswill responds to a phone call from Godfrey Radmore, long absent from their lives. As she prepares for his visit, the family’s financial struggles are hinted at, revealing a significant change in their once-comfortable lifestyle. Timmy is depicted as a unique child, hinting at his extraordinary gifts amidst the family's complicated emotions regarding Godfrey's return. The conversation surrounding Godfrey's ties with the family sets the stage for past relationships to resurface, raising questions of loyalty, affection, and the impact of time on their interconnected lives.
