crayolabird 's review for:
A Little Princess
by Frances Hodgson Burnett
This really is a beautiful story. I read it outloud to my 7 year old (LOVED IT) and my 4 1/2 year old (enjoyed it - but got a bit bored). Sarah Crew is such an admirable character - so full of the values I want my own daughter to have. The scene with the buns and the "beggar girl" were absolutely heart-wrenching and even my 7 year old understood how much strength it took.
The middle did get a bit long - even for me. But the last 1/3 really picked up and even though I know it would all be fine and grand for her in the end, I was still completely sucked in and my daughter and I had to finish it before she caught the bus today. Excellent characters and a wonderfully happy ending.
