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.

Surprisingly excellent
One of the best books I’ve ever read.
A Little Princess
My absolute favorite book from childhood.
Beautiful Story
I really loved this story. There is so much hatred in the world and in the hearts of people and at a young age Sara was exposed to such treachery. Doing the hardest thing possible she remind true to herself. The hardest thing to do in the face of adversity is not to break, and Sara provided us with hope that will keep us from breaking in the face of adversity so easily.
