Acting for the Best
Summary
Although best known for her children’s stories, Edith Nesbit has written several short stories for adults, including "Acting for the Best" in the collection titled In Homespun (1896). As a rather sinister twist on the literary and social tradition of sense and sensibility first introduced a century before, Nesbit tells the story of two cousins representing two very different character traits. With Jane focusing on the practical sides of love and Mattie losing herself in sentiment, Nesbit very ably combines these traits with a moral code befitting each woman.

Billy the King
Summary
This charming little story was published in the 1905 Oswald Bastable and Others. The Bastables feature heavily in Nesbits others works but "the others" are introduced as separate tales. Billy the King tells the story of a relentless dreamer who can’t accept a boring reality when his mind is so filled with delightful fantasies.
