Summary "The Good Resolution" by Daniel P. Kidder is a moralistic tale likely written in the early 19th century. This book is intended for a young audience, focusing on the themes of personal growth and moral development through the story of a young girl named Isabella Gardner. The narrative highlights the importance of controlling one's temper and overcoming personal faults through faith, family support, and self-reflection. The story centers on Isabella Gardner, who struggles with her angry temperament as she approaches her fourteenth birthday. Throughout the narrative, her mother, Mrs. Gardner, plays a pivotal role, guiding Isabella in understanding the consequences of her actions and encouraging her to make a resolution to improve her behavior. The plot unfolds as Isabella faces various challenges, including disappointments and conflicts with her family and peers, all while she attempts to uphold her resolution and seek God's assistance. As the story progresses, Isabella's character evolves, leading to a deeper understanding of humility, forgiveness, and the pursuit of a virtuous life, ultimately culminating in a significant transformation that brings her happiness and acceptance in her community.
