leenawho 's review for:

A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett
4.0
dark hopeful lighthearted sad fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

A nice little feel good story resplendent with colonists and orientalist tropes which one may embrace as "of the times".  I adores the "queer" little girl with her strength of character. 
However, why aren't more people bothered by how creepy it is that
grown men should make their way into a child's room through the skylight under the darkness of night?
