The way Sarah is portrayed is completely unrealistic, in my opinion. I mean, people like her because she can speak perfect French and she has a personal maid? Puh-lease.
I loved the movie version as a child and reading the book now, I found the story just as enchanting and moving. It has become one of my all-time favorites.

I grew up very familiar with the Shirley Temple movie version of the story and then later, the 1995 movie version and adored both. For many years I've wanted to actually read the book itself though. I have a beautiful hard cover of the book with beautiful color illustrations, but because of it's siz...
There is no doubt in my mind that "A Little Princess" by Frances Hodgson Burnett is a perfect classic. It's even in the title, as this story is clearly dedicated to every little girl who ever dreamt of being a princess. "I am a princess. All girls are. Even if they live in tiny old attics.
