I pretend I am a princess, so that I can try and behave like one. When the kind and imaginative seven-year-old Sara Crewe reaches Miss Minchin s Select Seminary for Young Ladies with her papa, she doesn't quite like it. I don t like it, papa, she said. But then I dare say soldiers even brave ones don t really like going into battle. The apple of her father s eye, Sara has all the privileges at the seminary and is treated with special care. Soon enough, she befriends her classmates and is nicknamed a princess , which she often pretends to be. But just after her eleventh birthday, when the news of her father s death arrives, everything changes. Will Sara Crewe's imagination help her cope up with the loss and hardships? One of the all-time children s novels, Frances Hodgson Burnett s A Little Princess is a remarkable story. It has been adapted for films, theatre, musicals, and television, and continues to remain popular more than a century after its publication.
