Drawing inspiration from her nieces and nephews, Rebecca Sophia Clarke crafted a collection of 45 realistic children's books between 1860 and 1903,

Hailing from Norridgewock, Maine, she embraced the pseudonym "Sophie May" for her publications, a name she playfully coined in 1861. Her unique approach to storytelling earned her the title "the Dickens of the nursery."

Unlike previous children's fiction, her characters were refreshingly imperfect, capturing the essence of children's humor, imagination, and mischief.

Clarke's pioneering narratives set a new standard, portraying children realistically and endearingly, making her a trailblazer in children's literature.
