About this ebook

Growing up is never easy, but imagine trying to maintain a cheerful outlook when the world around you seems to be losing its sparkle. In Pollyanna Grows Up, we meet our favourite optimist a few years after her initial adventures. Now a teenager, Pollyanna travels to the bustling city of Boston. In this urban setting, the "Glad Game" faces its toughest test yet. Pollyanna must navigate the lonely streets of a huge city, helping those who have forgotten how to smile, while eventually facing the bittersweet transitions of becoming an adult herself. This sequel of Pollyanna explores the idea that optimism is a brave choice that one must continue to make even when life becomes complicated and unpredictable.

****************************


The woman who brought this resilient spirit to life was Eleanor H. Porter, an American author who became a household name following the massive success of the first book. Born in New Hampshire in 1868, Porter’s own transition from a trained singer to a professional writer showed her dedication to following her passions. She wrote Pollyanna Grows Up in 1915, responding to a world that was eager to know what happened to the "Glad Girl" as she matured. Porter had a unique talent for creating characters that felt like real friends, and her writing often reflected her belief that literature should encourage and uplift the reader.
