Produced by Judith Boss. HTML version by Al Haines.
"A Little Princess" by Frances Hodgson Burnett is a children's novel written during the late 19th century. The story follows the life of Sara Crewe, a young girl who is sent to a boarding school in London after her father goes to work in India, and explores themes of wealth, loss, and resilience in the face of adversity. The opening of the novel introduces us to Sara, a bright and imaginative seven-year-old, as she arrives at Miss Minchin's Select Seminary for Young Ladies. Despite her father's wealth and the luxurious possessions he provides her, there is a melancholic undertone as they prepare for their separation. Sara's unique perspective and old-fashioned wisdom set her apart from other children, and she quickly captures the attention of her peers. Following her father's departure, the narrative hints at her journey from a privileged life to one of hardship, as Sara must navigate the challenges of school life, relationships, and her inner dreams of being a princess while coping with the stark realities that await her.
