Summary
Sara Crewe arrives in London from India as the richest girl at Miss Minchin's boarding school: silk dresses, a French maid, a pony carriage, and a father who adores her. She is clever, courteous and given to telling stories, and for a while the school is delighted to have her. Then her father dies, his fortune turns out to be gone, and Miss Minchin puts her to work in the scullery and sends her up to the cold attic to live with Becky, the little servant girl.
What follows is not a story about a girl who stops being a princess. It is a story about a girl who decides that being a princess has nothing to do with money -- that it means being polite when no one is polite to you, giving away buns you cannot afford, and treating a scullery maid as a friend. Across the wall lives an Indian gentleman with a monkey, a servant named Ram Dass, and a mystery that slowly comes into focus.
Frances Hodgson Burnett first wrote this as a novella called Sara Crewe, then expanded it in 1905 into the book read here. It has never been out of print, and its image of a child pretending in an attic during a London winter is one of the most enduring in children's literature.
This unabridged reading follows all nineteen chapters, from the fogbound arrival to the day the attic window opens.
