Answer:
1. Women were perceived as less talented, intelligent, and courageous than men. This implies the gender inequalities that occurred during the Victorian Era.
2. A fictional novel is literature that is false. They cannot be true and is simply a story created out of imagination. Non Fiction novels are texts consisting of real facts. Examples include biographies, reports, and news articles.
3.Francis Hardinge is a british author that loves writing revolutionary tales of fiction and whimsy. Every single one of her novels contain suspense, mystery, and fairytale-like details. Every young adult should read her because she depicts fantasy very well. Her stories just suck you in, and make you want to continue reading them forevermore.
4. I think the idea of growing up was established early in the novel related to the time period. (She wanted to wear a grown-up corset instead of a training one.)
