A Little Princess — Sara has lived like a princess with her wealthy father Captain Crewe in India. She lost her mother when she was born but she hardly felt the pain of her death as her father has always doted on her. She loves him immensely too. A highly imaginative child, Sara is fond of telling stories and this is what her father loves most about her. He hates the idea of living without her but Sara is seven now and needs good education for a future life. That is why he has brought her to London. They will spend several days together in London and then he will leave her at Miss Minchin s boarding school where an unforeseen life awaits her.
