Reviews - What do our customers think?
A classic story with enduring lessons!  Apr 28, 2010
A childhood favorite, this is the story of Sara, a young girl who faces adversity with courage, grace and a giving spirit. She arrives at a select London boarding school a "Princess" but becomes a charity case upon her father's death. Throughout Sara remembers her father's words that she would always be his princess and endeavors to fulfill that promise. Sara's princess is not spoiled and demanding, but kind, gracious and giving.

In a time where girls are constantly questioning themselves, these are words we all need to hear: "I am a princess. All girls are. Even if they live in tiny old attics. Even if they dress in rags, even if they aren't pretty, or smart, or young. They're still princesses. All of us. Didn't your father ever tell you that? Didn't he?"

I also highly recommend the version with Tasha Tudor illustrations. They are lovely and Tasha certainly studied her fair share of period clothing to know exactly the right way to illustrate this story.
 
Read, this is Important, some of the facts in these reviews are NOT true  Dec 27, 2009
I've been reading the reviews and there is nothing really left to say except...

Yes, it is sad that Sara's father is never reunited with her but the joy that is expressed when Sara meets her father's old friend makes up for that.
But, no, Sara does not leave behind Becky; Becky actually becomes her new maid. Read the book thoroughly and you will see that no body gets left behind.

That is all I have to say.
 
Best book I have ever read  Nov 4, 2009
If you only read one book in your life than this should be it. I am an avid reader and have considered this to be my favorite book for many years. The imagary is inchanting, the story inspiring and captivating. This book should be able to inspire girls and women of all ages if they just take the time to read it.
 
Bah.  Jul 29, 2009
I love the original book, but this one was filled with pictures and it came with no locket, which is what I wanted.

No wonder it was on sale for a penny.
 
A Very Cute Read!  Jun 17, 2009
This book would be a cute birthday present for a little girl, I'd say around the age of 11 or 12. A cute, classic story of a rich girl reduced to rags, but maintaining her hope, optimism, and imagination
