A Little Princess

"If I am a princess in rags and tatters, I can be a princess inside. It would be easy to be a princess if I were dressed in cloth of gold, but it is a great deal more of a triumph to be one all the time when no one knows it." Ranked among the best children's novels of all time, A Little Princess tells the story of Sara Crewe, the darling daughter of a British officer. Raised in India by a doting father, Sara's world is turned upside down when she is sent off to Miss Minchin's Select Seminary for Young Ladies in London. First a prized pupil, then a poor orphaned servant girl, Sara's kind and generous heart lights up the world around her despite the hardships she suffers. First a novella, then a popular Broadway play, Frances Hodgson Burnett expanded on the original material at the urging of her publisher to include all the things that were left out of the shorter version. Inspiring many adaptations for screen and stage, the 1995 film version was even nominated for two Academy Awards. Kobo Editions offers this fully-accessible version of the original text for your enjoyment.
