Cuando Mary Lennox se fue a vivir con su tío a Misselthwaite Manor, todos decían que era una niña de aspecto muy desagradable; y era cierto. En su cara delgada se reflejaba una expresión amarga. Su cuerpo era flaco y pequeño; su pelo, de color amarillo, era fino y escaso; su rostro era también pálido, quizás porque había nacido en la India, en donde, por una razón u otra, enfermaba continuamente. Su padre había sido empleado del gobierno inglés y sus obligaciones eran innumerables. Su madre, una mujer de gran belleza, sólo se preocupaba de asistir a las más alegres fiestas. Ella no quería tener una niña; por eso, cuando Mary nació, la entregó al cuidado de una aya a quien dio a entender que, para servir bien a la Mem Sahib debía mantenerla alejada de su presencia. Así, esta niña irritable, débil y feúcha estuvo siempre lejos de su madre. Ella sólo recordaba haber visto a su alrededor las caras morenas de su aya y de los demás sirvientes hindúes. Estos, para que no llorara o molestara a la Mem Sahib, la obedecían y le daban gusto en todo. De esta manera, al cumplir los seis años, Mary se había convertido en un ser tiránico y egoísta. La joven institutriz inglesa contratada para enseñarle a leer y escribir le tomó tal antipatía que a los tres meses dejó su trabajo. Otro tanto ocurrió con las institutrices que la sucedieron, y si a Mary no le hubiera interesado verdaderamente saber lo que contenían los libros, ni siquiera habría aprendido a leer. Tenía casi nueve años cuando una mañana de intenso calor la niña despertó muy malhumorada. Se enfadó aún más al ver a su lado a una sirvienta que no era su aya.

A Little Princess is one of Frances' most-loved novels. Penned by Frances Hodgson Burnett, an English-American playwright & author who is always remembered for her masterpiece in Children's Literature & Stories, A Little Princess is a heart-warming story of an innocent little girl. The rags to riches storyline of all her novels manifest her rise from being criticized as 'Scandalous' to an International author. However, even after being a popular figure, Frances never forgot about the hardships she had faced in her childhood and yet always was generous towards others. We get some glimpse of that replicated in her stories as well.
