An Apple Books Classics edition.
Sarah Crewe is a firm believer that character, not money, makes one a princess. Either way, the kind-hearted girl is in luck: while her wealthy father serves with the British army in India, she’s sent to Miss Minchin’s elite boarding school in London. But when Sarah’s father passes away, the money runs dry and the headmistress makes Sarah’s life miserable, forcing her to sleep in a freezing attic and work long hours.

What will happen to the little princess now that she has no one to care for her? With its empathic heroine, this magical tale of lost-and-found fortune has enchanted and inspired readers since 1905.

  • Beautiful Story

    I really loved this story. There is so much hatred in the world and in the hearts of people and at a young age Sara was exposed to such treachery. Doing the hardest thing possible she remind true to herself. The hardest thing to do in the face of adversity is not to break, and Sara provided us with hope that will keep us from breaking in the face of adversity so easily.

    I watched the cartoon movie translated into our language years ago. It’s a nice story. On the movie, Sara’s met his father towards the end, he was not dead afterall, but on the book the end was Sara went with the Indian guy. It was fine.

  • Too robotic

    By jozzette
    This book doesn’t give a real image of children because Sara is way to perfect and does no wrong and that makes her seem like a fake person because not even an adult can be that perfect and Sara only made one mistake in her life when she was too proud to make friends with the other girls.

  • Very cute but

    By AbiLuV07
    A very cute book, but I felt the need to change it a bit as I read it to my 8yr old. Skipping the parts about Ermguard(sp?) being stupid and fat. Or wishing she were as thin as Sarah (when in fact Sarah was not being fed enough). It seemed to end abruptly too. Almost like a chapter was missing.

  • Very Good but Disturbing

    I love Frances Hodgson Burnett’s writing style. I think Little Lord Fauntleroy is my favorite, but this is very good too. They label this as a children’s book but it is such a heavy subject matter (child abuse). Ms. Burnett doesn’t sugar coat the abuse. Our heroine is verbally abused, hit, starved, frozen, and worked to exhaustion. Miss Minchin needs to go to jail. I know it’s a different day but surely people knew right from wrong in those days. I am so glad that the story ends on a good note, but really, Miss Minchin needs her comeuppance.
