Mary Carmichael Teaches Brobdingnags at Yellett Farm
Mary Carmichael, teaching in a rough homestead, endures six Brobdingnag pupils at the Yellett camp. They resist reading, mock the alphabet, and scorn books while Mrs. Yellett rules with comic sternness. Judith Rodney arrives and the two women navigate social tensions and a playful family philosophy centered on the Book of Hiram.
