| Summary | "St. Nicholas, Vol. 5, No. 5, March, 1878" by Various is a children's magazine published during the late 19th century. This issue contains a variety of stories, illustrations, and educational content aimed at engaging young readers and fostering their imagination and knowledge. The standout narrative within this volume is "Hansa, The Little Lapp Maiden," which centers around Hansa, a young girl from a Lapp family facing the trials of life after losing her mother, and her consequent journey to find a new home. At the start of this installment, readers are introduced to two contrasting worlds—one of happy Norwegian children, Peder Olsen's family, enjoying their winter pastime and one of Hansa, who longs for love and companionship amidst her father's harshness. Hansa's life takes a pivotal turn when she is brought to the Norwegian wood-cutter's home after her father, in a drunken stupor, offers her up to another man. The opening sets the stage for an exploration of themes such as family, kindness, and the struggles of children in difficult circumstances, laying the groundwork for Hansa's journey toward acceptance and happiness in her new home.
