- The Dog Strove to Attract His Attention
- Student Commentary:
- In this image from Wollstonecraft’s Original Stories from Real Life, a man is standing in rigid fear and sorrow as he looks at two dead children. The children are a boy and a girl and lie in a bed in a room that only has one small window. On the right side of the image, there is a dog reaching up to lick the man’s hand. The accompanying text reads: “The Dog strove to attract his attention. He said, Thou will not leave me!”
