A Little Princess
This book ‘A Little Princess’ by Frances Hodgson Burnett is about a girl named Sara Crewe. Her dad, Ralph Crewe is very rich. When Ralph has to go to India to work in a diamond mine with his friend, he sends his daughter, Sara to a boarding school taught by Miss Minchin. In the whole school, she is the richest so Miss Minchin treats her the best. Lavinia is very jealous of Sara so she teases her. Sara is a kind girl so she doesn’t talk back. Sara makes friend with Ermengarde. She too is kind and helpful. Sara’s talent is telling stories. Ermengarde likes to listen to her interesting stories. When Sara’s father dies from suffering a disease, her father’s wealth disappears so Miss Minchin doesn’t like her anymore so she makes her as a servant. Her strong character helps her to fight off her life of poverty.
My favourite character is Sara. She is kind because when Lavinia teases her, she doesn't argue back. Instead she ignores her. Sara is very strong in her character because when all her rich things are taken away from her and she becomes a servant, she doesn’t complain.
I recommend this book to 10 to 15 years of age. It is because this book is very sad when she is made as a servant. I encourage you to read it because you will enjoy it.
