EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration from 1938, we find Dunderpate, a young boy with a mischievous expression and a distinctive dunce cap, accompanied by his friend Susan, a bright and determined girl, as they make their way to town. The sun casts a warm glow over the scene, illuminating the dusty path that winds through the countryside. Dunderpate, once filled with excitement and dreams of seeking his fortune, now appears to be losing interest. His foot drags on the ground, and his gaze is fixed on the dirt beneath his feet. His once-prized book, which he used to read with fervor, now hangs limply at his side. Susan, on the other hand, remains focused on their destination. She kicks a small pebble along the path, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and determination. Her arms are laden with a basket filled with freshly baked goods from her mother's bakery, and the scent of fresh bread wafts through the air. The silhouette of the two friends against the setting sun creates a poignant contrast between their differing attitudes. While Dunderpate seems demotivated and disinterested, Susan's spirit remains undeterred. The image captures the essence of childhood in the 1930s, a time of innocence and resilience in the face of adversity. This illustration, titled "Dunderpate and his friend Susan walking to town," is a charming reminder of the importance of friendship and the power of determination, even in the face of setbacks. It is a visual snapshot of a bygone era, and a testament to the enduring spirit of children, who continue to inspire us with their boundless curiosity and unwavering resolve.
