| Summary | "Walter and the Wireless" by Sara Ware Bassett is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Walter King, a freckled and carefree fifteen-year-old boy nicknamed "His Highness," who takes a job caring for a pack of prize-winning dogs at the Crowninshield's summer estate. As Walter embarks on this new adventure, readers can expect to encounter themes of responsibility, friendship, and the clash between youthful spontaneity and the expectations of adulthood. The opening of the book introduces Walter in his home environment, showcasing his playful nature and close relationship with his mother. As they converse, it becomes clear that Walter faces both excitement and trepidation about his upcoming job with the Crowninshields, particularly with the significant responsibility of looking after valuable dogs. The narrative efficiently paints a picture of Walter's world, balancing his humorous disposition with serious undercurrents of familial obligation and the pressure of his new role. As he prepares to leave the familiar comforts of home, the stage is set for a journey of growth and adventure. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
