Publisher Description
An Apple Books Classics edition.
Sarah Crewe is a firm believer that character, not money, makes one a princess. Either way, the kind-hearted girl is in luck: while her wealthy father serves with the British army in India, she’s sent to Miss Minchin’s elite boarding school in London. But when Sarah’s father passes away, the money runs dry and the headmistress makes Sarah’s life miserable, forcing her to sleep in a freezing attic and work long hours.
What will happen to the little princess now that she has no one to care for her? With its empathic heroine, this magical tale of lost-and-found fortune has enchanted and inspired readers since 1905.
Customer Reviews
Timeless Classic
Read this book as a young boy- thought it was too girly
Read it later as a young teen for a book review- felt it was interesting with a far fetched protagonist.
Read it as a young adult at 21- thought there were lessons to learn
Read it now @ 33 - not girly nor far fetched protagonist but definite lessons to be learnt from it and kindness always brings its own rewards. Learnt from life experiences.
