Review:
The book is a story of a cold, lonely, hungry and orphan princess unlike many of you would have imagined from the title of the book. The princess was brought up by her beloved dad with care but after the death of her dad, she was given to the mistress of her boarding school teacher and mercy for the little princess was non-existent. The girl was only left with a doll and a set of clothes. Sara (the princess) then became servant to the household and was hated by the mistress. Sara had few secret friends, but with the power of integrity and will, she able to maintain the deportment, inner nobility and generous spirit of true princess.
The book is well written and the story is amazing that shows the triumph of human will, and explains the difference of good over evil on different levels.
The story is real classic and equally enjoyable for people belong to any group of age. The book is also part of literature in many schools, elaborates how well the book was organized, and how simple the language is to understand.
