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.
