description: As a young girl Sara Crewe is brought over from India by her father to join a girls' seminary in London. Her greatest joy is to 'pretend' things to make life more magical, both for herself and those less fortunate than herself. She is a general favorite, but her splendid clothes, French maid and personal carriage set her apart from the rest and create jealousy in Miss Minchin, the avaricious head of the school.When Sara is suddenly and tragically thrown into poverty she must keep a strong hold on her vivid imagination and tender heart to probe to those who ill-treat her than even through hardship and want she can remain 'a little princess'.
