About this listen

A classic of children's literature! The book's success led to Porter writing a sequel, Pollyanna Grows Up. Eleven more Pollyanna sequels, known as "Glad Books", were later published. Due to the book's fame, Pollyanna has become a byword for someone who - like the title character - has an unfailingly optimistic outlook. Pollyanna has been adapted for film several times.

Disappointing.

One of my favourite childhood reads, but so appallingly read
