Condition: This vintage book is in Acceptable Condition. The cover has a moisture stain and is slightly worn on the edges. The flyleaf has a previous owner's name and address written very faintly in ink. The pages are beginning to separate from the binding at the title page and the back cover. One set of four pages has separated from the middle of the book, but is present. The pages are yellowed with age and a few have stains.
In one of the best-loved classic tales for children, Sara Crewe is sent to England to attend Miss Minchin's boarding school for girls. Her time there starts wonderfully as she is treated just like a princess. Unfortunately it is because Miss Minchin is hoping to gain a piece of Sara's family fortune.
But when Sara's wealthy father dies and leaves her penniless, Miss Minchin makes Sara do the worst chores in the house. Still, as badly as Miss Minchin treats Sara, with a little help from her friends and her imagination, Sara is determined to find happiness no matter what.
