A LITTLE PRINCESS
HarperCollins 2000
Adapted from the original story by Frances Burnett
Illustrated by Barbara McClintock
In this picture book adaptation of Frances Hodgson Burnett's A LITTLE
PRINCESS, Sara Crewe and ninteenth-century London come brilliantly alive
under the expert hand of award-winning author and illustrator Barbara
McClintock.
When kindhearted Sara Crewe arrives at Miss Minchin's boarding school,
she seems just like a real little princess. Then a sudden misfortune
turns her life upside down, and Sara is banished to the school's dreary
attic and must work for her living. It takes all of Sara's imagination
and a bit of magic to turn her misfortunes around and prove she is, at
heart, a little princess.
( Ages 4 - 8 )
“McClintock's sensitive illustrations...will certainly appeal to readers and book buyers of all ages...children or parents who want a picture book version will find this a very pretty one.” — Booklist
