作者简介

Hesba Stretton, the pseudonym of Sarah Smith, was a renowned English author of children's literature in the Victorian era. Born on July 27, 1832, in Wellington, Shropshire, Stretton penned numerous tales that often featured themes of social injustice while offering moral lessons. Her literary style is characterized by a direct narrative technique, which combined with her deep Christian values, served to educate and promote a sense of empathy among her readers. One of her most cherished works is 'The Christmas Child,' a story that exemplifies her ability to weave the spirit of charity and the importance of family into a touching holiday narrative. This book, like many of her works, showcased Stretton's commitment to addressing the hardships faced by the poor and marginalized through evocative storytelling. Her writing was not only influential in the realm of literature but also played a significant role in the social movements of her time, as she was an active member of the Evangelical Party of the Church of England and other social reform organizations. Stretton's works remain notable for their poignant exploration of Victorian life and their enduring moral messages.
