内容简介

"Nothing in the world is so strong as a kind heart," according to the author of Little Lord Fauntleroy, whose other popular works include A Little Princess and The Secret Garden . Frances Hodgson Burnett's conviction that love conquers all is memorably embodied in this tale of an American boy who is transported from the mean streets of nineteenth-century New York to the splendor of his titled grandfather's English manor. Young Cedric is to be schooled by the crotchety old Earl in the manners of the peerage; as it happens, the child teaches the man some valuable lessons about the true meaning of nobility. Unabridged republication of a standard edition.
