Critics Review

I’d read Frances Hodgson Burnett’s The Secret Garden and loved it - so I tried A Little Princess and liked it even more!

I’d read Frances Hodgson Burnett’s The Secret Garden and loved it - so I tried A Little Princess and liked it even more! - Jacqueline Wilson

I’m not sure I could have survived childhood without Frances Hodgson Burnett. My sister and I would crawl into the attic of our suburban American house and pretend we were looking across London rooftops. We’d lost our parents and our money, but perhaps a mysterious monk would visit our miserable garret - Meg Rosoff

Generations of children have fallen in love with the story of Sara Crewe, the little girl who imagines she’s a princess in order to survive the hard times - Daily Mail

Sara Crewe is a Cinderella figure… She is intelligent and good humoured with an infectious warmth that embraces the lowliest of her new acquaintances. The sunshine continues when impoverishment and drudgery befall her and she relies on her private fantasies to preserve her natural zest for life - Guardian
