Sarah Crewe comes to London with her father to study at Miss Minchin's school. Sarah, who was always surrounded by her father's boundless love and care, finds herself in an unusual environment for her. The girl's favorite pastime is to invent all kinds of interesting stories, which both she and her little listeners, the other pupils of Miss Minchin's school, are carried away by. However, life has its unexpected turns, and bitter trials do not bypass Sarah either. Even in the most difficult circumstances, Burnett's thoughtful heroine does not cease to be kind and compassionate, resourceful and wise, behaving like a real princess. For more than a hundred years, "The Little Princess" has remained one of the most attractive examples of English children's literature, retaining its unique charm for readers of all ages.
