A Little Princess

by Frances Hodgson Burnett

Ingram Book Co, | January 10, 2006 | Trade Paperback

A Little Princess (1905) by Frances Hodgson Burnett is a beloved children''s classic, the story of a brave little girl who retains her dignity, compassion, kindness, and the true demeanor of a princess through unexpected hardship and misfortune.

The child of the wealthy Captain Crewe who has made his diamond fortune in India, smart and imaginative Sara Crewe is the pampered darling of the boarding school until it is discovered that her father has died and their fortune has been lost. Instantly demoted to a servant, made to live in the dingy attic and perform the hardest chores, starved and mistreated by the mean Miss Minchin and all the servants, Sara finds her only friends and allies in the kindly servant girl Becky and two classmates -- until sudden magic comes to brighten her life in the form of a mysterious benefactor.

This novel is an expanded and revised version of the author''s earlier work Sara Crewe (1888).

    This book... wow. Beautiful. I cried at the melancholy parts, thinking how cruel everyone was to little Sara. But wait, I reminded myself, this is only a story. But a wonderful one, indeed. At times I had to remind myself that, like a dream, this book was not true, no matter how rich the descriptions were, and how they made me feel. This book is a miracle to literature. If you have only read "The Secret Garden", you've made a gigantic mistake.

    I recently read this book again to remember how much I loved it as a child. A truly phenomenal story of a girl who in the face of adversity never forgets that she is a princess on the inside. A pinnacle choice for the classic happy ending.
