When little Sara Crewe is brought from India to London to join Miss
Minchin's school, she arrives a princess - cloaked in velvet and
feathers, surrounded by extravagant affection. Then disaster
strikes, her father dies and his business fails, and Sara is cast
into poverty. Now a beggar, and used by the school for
back-breaking work, she must depend on her imagination, and the
kindness of strangers, to lift her above the misery of her
circumstances. A dramatic reversal of the traditional 'rags to
riches' formula, A Little Princess, by the author of The Secret
Garden, Frances Hodgson Burnett, is a truly magical story about the
power of optimism in the face of adversity, which continues to
enchant readers of all ages.This beautiful Macmillan Collector's
Library edition of A Little Princess features illustrations by
Reginald Birch and an afterword by publisher Anna South.Designed to
appeal to the booklover, the Macmillan Collector's Library is a
series of beautiful gift editions of much loved classic titles.
