Drawing from her own personal experiences, author Frances Hodgson Burnett uncharacteristically reverses the popular theme of rags-to-riches in A Little Princess. Young Sara Crewe is forced into a life of poverty when her father declares bankruptcy. Sara's life immediately changes. Once a privileged student at Miss Minchin's Select Seminary for Young Ladies, Sara is now forced into a life of servitude. Despite this all, Sara continues to be the caring girl who knows that with the right attitude she can remain a princess at heart. Unabridged. ~ Enh
