About this book
*Pollyanna* is a 1913 children's novel about an orphaned girl whose relentless optimism—her "glad game"—transforms a New England town and her stern aunt. It suits readers interested in classic American children's literature and early twentieth-century sentimental fiction. A note on the catalogue data: the "first published: 1998" date and "history" subject classification appear inaccurate. This novel was first published in 1913 and is fiction, not history—you may want to verify these fields.
