About this book

A fishing pond supports a struggling family until a change of ownership turns a boy's familiar work into a troubling mistake. Dan Phillips, thirteen, sells trout to help his mother and younger sister. In "A Case of Trespass," his discovery of a notice banning fishing forces him to choose between fear of the owner and an honest account of what he has done.

Lucy Maud Montgomery's collection brings together Canadian short stories from 1896 to 1901. The selections move through village life, family obligations, and social ambition. "The Jest That Failed" begins with college students planning a cruel prank against Grace Seeley because she is poor and dresses plainly. The contrast between Dan's concern for his family and the students' concern for status gives readers two distinct approaches to character: one through responsibility, the other through exclusion. These stories make everyday encounters carry the weight of larger moral choices.
