She is bright and hardworking, and dreams of becoming a teacher. However, her path to success is fraught with obstacles, including a predatory employer and a dangerous gang of thieves.As Bessie navigates the treacherous world of Frying-Pan Alley, she learns the value of friendship, love, and perseverance.
