Forced to fend for herself, she becomes a "chimney child," taking on dangerous work to survive in a society rife with poverty and exploitation. As she navigates the harsh realities of her environment, Mary discovers resilience and courage, forging unexpected friendships along the way. The story explores themes of hope, survival, and the power of community in a time of great adversity, as she dreams of a brighter future beyond the soot and grime.
