A Little Princess / Маленька принцеса

“It would be easy to be a princess if I were dressed in cloth of gold, but it is a great deal more of a triumph to be one all the time when no one knows it,” thinks Sara Crewe, the character of the novel “A Little Princess” written by Frances H. Burnett (1849-1924). Th is conviction helps the girl to endure the hard times after her father dies in faraway India with dignity when she becomes almost a servant in a school for young ladies where she used to be a privileged pupil. But despite all the trials, and occasionally even hunger and cold, Sara still believes in miracles and that one day fate will smile on her again.
