A Little Princess

by Eliza Gatewood Warren (Adapted By), Frances Hodgson Burnett

The story of how Sara's fortunes change again, and how she discovers the true meaning of family, is a tale that has delighted children since its initial publication in 1905. Illustrated with a wealth of color and black-and-white drawings by British muralist Graham Rust, here is an enduring children's classic sure to enthrall youngsters aged 8-14.

listen, the 90s movie is my gold standard, so this was just okay for me. read it to Salem and Junie. Salem wept at points 😂 it was fun to share the story with them ❤️

Well, I really liked how Sara was so nice. Even when she was
treated really badly, she still acted like a princess! I
think my favorite part was when Ram Dass made Sara's room
a wonderland!

I love this book and my favorite part is that we have the same name.

Cute book. I liked the illustrations. Actually very close to the original text. Definitely more authentic than the Classic Starts edition. Liked how they explained how Melchy got his name.

I've been meaning to read this book for five years. It was not worth it. It was good, but it's very similar to Oliver Twist and Dickens tells the story better.
