A Little Princess — Frances Hodgson Burnett

Without her beloved father and miles from home it is very hard for Sara Crewe to like her new life at boarding school Luckily Sara is always dreaming up wonderful things and her power of telling stories wins her lots of friends When a letter arrives that brings disastrous news the wicked headmistress Miss Minchin forces Sara to become a servant Her lovely clothes and toys are taken away from her She must work from dawn until midnight How will Sara cope with her new found poverty Can her imagination help her overcome this horrible situation Sara s life at Miss Minchin s London boarding school changes drastically when her father dies leaving her penniless Sara Crewe a pupil at Miss Minchin s London school is left in poverty when her father dies but is later rescued by a mysterious benefactor Once on a dark winter s day when the yellow fog hung so thick and heavy in the streets of London that the lamps were lighted and the shop windows blazed with gas as they do at night

Sara Crewe s young but doting father sends her to a London boarding school when she is seven On her eleventh birthday her life of luxury comes to an abrupt end when she receives news that her father has died shortly after losing his entire fortune The school mistress turns Sara into a servant to pay off her debts and though Sara uses the entire force of her imagination and her good heart to remember who she is and keep starvation from the door her life is desperate Until the past returns in a very unexpected manner
