A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett is an emotional book. This book is about a young girl who learns to be true to herself and never give up. I would recommend this book to people who like to explore feelings in books. Sara, the main character, goes through some difficult experiences. Her parents died, and she is sent off to boarding school. She becomes a maid and isn't treated fairly by her boarding school master. Sara makes a friend who teaches her that it is okay to just be yourself and believe in yourself. I would rate this book an 3 out of 5. Wow! This book is an amazing and heartfelt book.

I thought this book was really cute when I read. I had seen the movie before I read it, so I was suprised to find out how different the movie was forom the book. Bye, Bye Father, Hello Father's friend! Those who read it (and saw the movie) know what I mean. I still thought the book was better. It was really cute, but even though I was 11 (6th grade) when I first read it, I still thought it was for a younger group.

Who hasnt read this book or seen the movie? Well let me tell you. Both made me cry. I love this book. I admire that little girl and her spirit, will and determination to stay fast to her beliefs. Any one who has read the book or seen the movie HATES Ms. Minchin... but I dont think Sarah does. I think that she pities the old lady. Obviously she never knew all girls are princesses. She punishes poor Sarah in her jealousy but in the end, the princess wins. Is it any wonder that Sarah means princess?

Sarah lives a wealthy life as a child and is never denied anything her heart desires.
However, her father dies, and through many unfortunate setbacks she's left orphaned and penniless.
What would a normal girl do? Snap back at everyone else. Retreat into herself. Become sulky and ill mannered. But Sarah Crewe is exemplary, and above it all.
Only a little girl, she still manages to behave better than any one of us would in the circumstances. She never lets herself stop believing she's a princess. She uses this as a way to hold onto her values and stay the kindhearted person she is, no matter how badly the other girls at the boarding school may treat her. She's the same as she was before, unchanged except for living as a servant with but one set of clothes and a doll to her name.
Will her fairy godmother come to the rescue, or will the villainous headmistress never relinquish her hold on Sarah? Is Sarah really a princess, or only in her mind?
This book is a classic and deserves to be read!
