About the book

Frances Hodgson Burnett - best known for writing The Secret Garden, Little Lord Fauntleroy, and The Little Princess - had a difficult childhood, losing her father when she was very young and moving with her family from England to Tennessee in hopes of a better life. She'd been making up stories her entire life but didn't try to write professionally until she was a teenager to help feed her family. Her first submissions to a magazine were published and she eventually became well known all over the world. This is Hodgson Burnett's life story, told in lyrical prose evoking some of the same magic of her own stories.
