A year has passed since Pollyanna’s paralysing accident. A year older, but still playing the Glad Game. Pollyanna travels to Boston, where she meets an ex-convict, gets lost in the city, saves a young woman from degradation and makes friends with a boy who keeps a Jolly Book. In the second half of the book, Pollyanna comes home from a trip to Europe as a young woman of 20, pretty as a picture yet convinced she’s unmarriageable. With three potential suitors, whom will Pollyanna choose?
