Book Reviews of A Little Princess (Puffin Classics)
Book Review: another children's classic by a master storyteller.
Summary: 5 Stars
I grew up watching the films, so there were a couple of surprises when I finally sat down and read the original novel. Sara Crewe is a spoiled little girl and called a "princess" by everyone, some insultingly and others endearingly. Her life changes utterly when her father dies and she is reduced to Cinderella, working as a scullery maid. Frances Hodgson Burnett was a master of fairy tale-like literature for children with her simple beautiful prose and clever stories. Here, she presents a very different sort of princess, one with grace and generosity. Grade: A-
