Sara Crewe, or What Happened at Miss Minchin's by Frances Hodgson Burnett

5.0

I love this book and it probably has a lot to do with the copy that I read. It belonged to my Great Grandmother. She got the book the Christmas after she graduated high school in 1900. I think book began my love of period literature. Although to my great grandmonther this would have been contemporary literature. Sara is an orphan who lives at Miss Minchin's. The story tells her adventure and hope of finding a new fmaily after the loss parents. I think there was something magical for me, as a young girl, reading about a young girl in a book that had been around for more than 80 years at the time. My grea grandmother was a school teacher and my imagnation of the hans that must have help that same book made this probably more amazing to me than the sotry actually was.
