A Little Princess is one of the most enduring classics of children’s literature by Frances Hodgson Burnett. The novel tells the moving story of Sara Crewe, a young girl whose privileged life at a London boarding school is abruptly transformed when she is left penniless after her father’s death.
Reduced to poverty and treated as a servant, Sara endures hardship with imagination, dignity, and compassion. Burnett presents childhood as a space of moral awareness, exploring themes of kindness, resilience, class division, and emotional strength. The novel’s belief that true nobility lies in character rather than wealth has ensured its lasting appeal.
Presented in a clear and reader-friendly format, this edition is ideal for students, educators, and general readers. A Little Princess continues to be widely read and taught for its ethical depth, emotional warmth, and timeless message of hope.
