Orphaned, Dora is forced to live with her snobbish relatives. Dora's uncle sends money to help with her expenses. Unfortunately, Dora isn't aware and her aunt uses the money to further her own daughter's future. Like Cinderella, Dora works and is treated like a maid in her aunt's home.

Growing up into a graceful young woman, Dora overcomes all odds and finds happiness.

Another MJH book I recommend.

All of Mary Jane Holmes books were written at the turn of the century and reflect the times in which she was
living. This was an excellent read. I highly recommend all of her books.

i loved doras character.she was sweet and humble.lena rivers was humble also but she kinda played off of that this is a great book like cinderella type story.

The book is about a young girl by the name Dora Deane. She becomes orphaned and is sent to live with her Aunt and two cousins. The eldest cousin calls all the shots while the mother often times reluctant, still allows her selfish daughter to have her way.

We get to watch Dora rise to greatness despite her cousins actions.

I am definitely a fan of the era in which M.J.H stories take place.
