Why did Kit bring Prudence to the house of Hannah Tupper?

Kit brought Prudence to the house of Hannah Tupper because she wanted to help her friend, who was being bullied and ostracized by the community for her association with the outcast Hannah. Kit believed that Hannah, known for her kindness and wisdom, could provide Prudence with guidance and support. Additionally, Kit aimed to show Prudence the value of friendship and acceptance, contrasting the harsh judgment of their Puritan society. This visit also served to deepen their bond and empower Prudence to stand up for herself.
