About this ebook
Sara Crewe is a girl endowed with prodigious intelligence and imagination who arrives in London from India to be enrolled in Miss Minchin’s select seminary, where she is initially treated with deference as a little heiress thanks to her father’s immense fortune. However, her world crumbles upon receiving the news that Captain Crewe has died penniless following the failure of investments in diamond mines, prompting the implacable headmistress to strip her of all her belongings and confine her to a frigid attic to work as a servant. Despite suffering from hunger, extreme cold, and the cruel humiliations of those who once flattered her, Sara resolves to endure with stoicism, taking refuge in the fantasy that she is a princess in exile and finding solace in the friendship of the most disadvantaged. Her integrity is ultimately rewarded when a mysterious neighbor, haunted by remorse, begins to transform her reality through anonymous acts of kindness which, along with a twist of fate, restore to her not only her lost wealth but also the home and affection she so deeply craved.
