A Little Princess

Author: Frances Hodgson Burnett

Its young heroine, Sara Crewe, falls upon hard times at an English boarding school when her father suddenly dies.

This charming piece of fiction, first published nearly a century ago — and more recently the basis of an acclaimed motion picture — follows that pattern.
