A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett
"A Little Princess" by Frances Hodgson Burnett is a children's novel published in 1905. When young Sara Crewe arrives at a London boarding school as a privileged pupil, she wins hearts with her imagination and kindness. But a sudden tragedy strips away her fortune, transforming her from pampered princess to starving servant. As the cruel headmistress exploits her and hardship tests her spirit, Sara clings to one belief: true nobility comes from
character, not wealth. A mysterious benefactor watches from next door, harboring secrets that could change everything. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
