"Rainbow Hill" by Josephine Lawrence is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around the Willis family, particularly focusing on the eldest daughter, Rosemary, and her adjusting to life during a summer spent on a picturesque farm named Rainbow Hill. As the family relocates from their bustling town life, they encounter various adventures and challenges as they learn to embrace the tranquility of rural living. The opening of the novel introduces us to the Willis family, kicking off with Doctor Hugh Willis discussing plans for renovations to their home with his mother and sisters. The family is lively, with each character vividly portrayed: there's Rosemary, the determined and adventurous eldest daughter; Sarah, her strong-willed and nature-loving sibling; and young Shirley, who represents innocence and playfulness. As they prepare for their summer at Rainbow Hill, excitement builds over the new experiences ahead, from exploring the farm to embarking on adventures with their hired hands, Warren and Richard. The chapter ends with a sense of curiosity about life on the farm and the initial impressions of their new home, setting the stage for the adventures to come.
