Description
When Sara Crewe's father dies, her privileged status at an English boarding school comes to an abrupt end. The former favorite finds herself penniless and at the mercy of a vindictive headmistress -- but still manages to maintain her kind nature and optimistic outlook. This Victorian-era tale's message of making the best of misfortunes through imagination and generosity remains a source of inspiration and enchantment.
About the Author
English-born novelist and playwright Frances Hodgson Burnett (1849-1924) is best known for her three children's classics: The Secret Garden, A Little Princess, and Little Lord Fauntleroy. Her 40-some books focus on sentimental, romantic themes, and her biography, written by her son (the model for Little Lord Fauntleroy), is called The Romantick Lady.
