Little Lord Fauntleroy Burnett Frances H

**Little Lord Fauntleroy** - Because who doesn't love a rags-to-riches tale with velvet suits?

Frances Hodgson Burnett's delightful Victorian romp follows young Cedric, a scrappy American boy who discovers he's heir to an English earldom. Suddenly thrust into a world of aristocratic grumpiness and fancy manners, this plucky kid melts hearts (including his crusty grandfather's) with pure decency and charm. It's a timeless story about kindness trumping class snobbery - revolutionary stuff for 1886!

Perfect for middle-grade readers who enjoy classic children's literature, plus nostalgic adults craving comfort reads. Burnett, who also penned *The Secret Garden*, knew how to craft characters that stick with you long after the final page.

This preloved Patina Paperbacks edition has lived a little - just like the best stories should.

"My 10-year-old devoured this in two days and immediately started calling everyone 'Dearest!'" - Sarah M.

"Surprisingly engaging for a Victorian novel. Cedric's earnestness is infectious rather than irritating." - Book Club Betty
