Sara Crewe began to be called the "little princess" behind her back. No, she was not of royal blood. She was the daughter of Captain Crewe. When Sara turned seven, her father brought her from India to England, to Miss Minchin's boarding school. They say the climate in India is not healthy for little girls, and they also say that a girl must receive an education… Sara didn't mind, although she missed her father and the jungle. She grew up, studied, made friends, and had rivals. Captain Crewe was wealthy, and Sara had gorgeous dresses, a charming doll, a kind heart, and a bright mind. Simply a little princess!
But one day, a letter arrived saying that her father had died… And that meant there was no one to pay for her schooling. Miss Minchin is cunning, greedy, and cruel. She keeps Sara at the school as a servant, and later assigns her to teach the younger children. Nothing remains of the magnificent dresses or rich gifts - only a room in the attic, her doll, hard work, and the unkind treatment of her former classmates. But Sara does not give up. After all, she is a little princess. And princesses hold their chins high and never answer evil with evil. What happened to Sara Crewe next?..
For middle and high school age.
