Summary "Suutarin oppi-poika: Kertoelma lapsille" by Thekla von Gumpert is a children's tale written in the mid-19th century. The story centers around a young boy named Wille, who navigates life after the loss of his parents, driven by a passion for drawing and aspirations to become an artist. His journey reflects themes of resilience, morality, and the importance of hard work and faith in God. The opening of the narrative introduces Wille and his mother, a widow struggling to raise her son in a modest environment following the death of his father, a goldsmith who had artistic aspirations but succumbed to poverty. As Wille grows, his mother encourages his talent for drawing, hoping to secure funds for his art education. Tragically, his mother falls ill, prompting a heartfelt farewell where she imparts essential lessons about faith and morality. After her passing, Wille must leave his home and live with a relative, the town cobbler, leading him into a world filled with challenges and moral dilemmas, emphasizing the importance of honesty and loyalty, as he grapples with temptation and the memories of his beloved parents.
