Summary "Patty in the City" by Carolyn Wells is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a spirited young girl named Patty Fairfield as she transitions from her serene life in the small town of Vernondale to the bustling atmosphere of New York City. The narrative promises to explore themes of friendship, self-discovery, and the challenges of adapting to a new environment, particularly as she navigates school life and budding relationships in the city. At the start of the book, the Fairfields are preparing to leave their home in Vernondale for a winter stay in New York City, driven by Mr. Fairfield’s desire to be closer to his fiancée, Nan. Patty’s excitement for city life is juxtaposed with her fondness for her hometown and friends. The opening chapters depict her conversations with her father about their move, Patty's feelings of both anticipation and sadness about leaving her friends behind, and her eagerness to create a new life in the city. As she engages with new characters, including her relatives and prospective schoolmates, the stage is set for both humorous and heartwarming encounters that will shape her experiences and growth throughout the story.
