Summary "Sara Crewe; Or, What Happened at Miss Minchin's" by Frances Hodgson Burnett is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around a young girl named Sara Crewe, who is sent to a boarding school, Miss Minchin's Select Seminary for Young Ladies, after her father must leave her behind when he returns to India. As the narrative unfolds, readers witness Sara's journey through the challenges of loss and social isolation, highlighting her resilience and imaginative spirit. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Sara and her difficult transition to life at Miss Minchin's boarding school. Initially regarded as a favored pupil due to her wealthy background, Sara's world upends when she learns of her father's death and her subsequent loss of fortune. This dramatic shift leaves her in a position of servitude and ridicule among her peers. Despite the harsh conditions she faces, Sara maintains her dignity, often engaging her vivid imagination to cope with her situation. Throughout her struggles, she finds strength in her beliefs and the hope that one day her fortunes will change, setting the stage for a tale of resilience and transformation.
