This is the timeless classic about Sara Crewe, daughter of a wealthy father, who is brought from India to a boarding school in England. There, due to her father's wealth, she is treated like royalty--until her father suddenly dies, and she is left penniless. She is soon treated like a scullery maid, and forced to live in a cold garret. Keeping her courage and never bitter, Sara is rescued and reinstated in riches by a long-lost friend of her father's.
