Abstract
This essay examines Kate Douglas Wiggin’s use of New Woman strategies that prophesy new possibilities for girls and revise previous New Woman models. In doing so, Wiggin bridges the gap between adult nostalgia and childhood imagination, providing adult and young readers alike with visions of the new girl’s future.
