Mary Molesworth

    Mary Louisa Molesworth, escribiendo como la Sra. Molesworth, fue una prolífica autora de cuentos infantiles que capturó magistralmente la esencia de la era victoriana tardía. Sus obras, a menudo denominadas la "Jane Austen de la guardería", equilibraban el entretenimiento con una importante instrucción moral, preparando a los jóvenes lectores para los deberes de la edad adulta al enfatizar virtudes como el deber y el autosacrificio. Una característica distintiva de su escritura implicaba faltas de ortografía intencionales para evocar la autenticidad del habla infantil, con el objetivo de imitar sus patrones lingüísticos. Más allá de sus relatos realistas, Molesworth también exploró lo sobrenatural, añadiendo una capa de misterio e intriga a sus contribuciones literarias.
