Summary

To prepare his daughter, Sara, for society, wealthy widower Captain Ralph Crewe enrolls her in Miss Minchin's Select Seminary for Young Ladies. Unspoiled and genial, Sara is given all the luxuries her father can afford - and the obsequious Miss Minchin is happy to indulge. But when her father dies and his fortune is lost, Sara is forced into servitude, stripped of her privileges and possessions, and subjected to Miss Minchin's true cruel nature.

But as A Little Princess proves, with cleverness, resilience, selfless goodwill, and true friends, a child can be rewarded with infinite riches.

lovely story!

lovely story, one of my favourites ❤ the narrator is good but cant fo a cockney accent at all so all the poorer characters sound Irish and one (the baker woman) sounded American. But, nevertheless, you just cant beat FHB for a beautifully written, uplifting tale. x
