Misunderstood by Florence Montgomery explores the psychological implications of parent-child relationships. Montgomery writes from the point of view of a young boy who lost his mother at a very early age. Excerpt: "Ever since the nursery dinner has the rain come pouring down all over the fields and meadows, the lawns and gardens, the roofs and gables of old Wareham Abbey, in the county of Sussex. Ever since the cloth was cleared away have two little curly heads been pressed close together at the nursery window, and two pair of eager eyes been watching the clouds and sky."
