Description
Sara Crewe was best friends with her father, a captain. They always walked around hand in hand, and her father would give little Sara her heart's desires. Then one day Sara's father drops her off at old Miss Minchin's boarding school in London. There she is spoiled with her own room, with beautiful luxuries, closets full of silks and furs. But Sara Crew was not haughty or stuck-up at all. She loved the company and happiness of others, and always had a good story to tell. Some girls at Miss Minchin's Select Seminary thought she is the queerest girl on earth. How she treats everyone equally (even servant girls) and stares into space and wonders the most unusual things. Sara often thought of herself as a princess, and the other girls snickered when she pretended things like that. But how she imagined the most beautiful things! She would sit and tell fascinating, beautiful stories of mermaids and enchanting creatures that seemed a world away. Some were even jealous of Sara Crewes's possessions and pretended that they don't care for her at all. Sara could only dimly imagine what it would be like to be truly miserable. But then that would soon change. Because of one tragic fate, Sara turns unbelievably poor and is forced to work for so little, up in the attic of Miss Minchin's boarding school. The wonderful story that will make your heart race for the little girl who was once called a princess. Will she ever live happily ever after?
