Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 3 Up Burnett's classic story of a disagreeable and self-centered little girl and her equally disagreeable invalid cousin is as real and wise and enthralling now as it was when it was first written over 75 years ago. The strength of her characterizations pulls readers into the story, and the depth inherent in the seemingly simple plot continues to make this sometimes forgotten story as vital to the maturation of young readers as Tom Sawyer and Little Women. Hague's illustrations enhance the story beautifully, capturing as they do, both the old-fashioned and timeless quality of the tale. The charm, clarity, and muted tones of Hague's paintings add dimension to each part of the tale. A reissue of an old classic to be treasured by a new generation of children (and their parents)!

Frances Hodgson Burnett's classic tale of loneliness, loss and renewal at a Victorian mansion is brought to life in this wonderful full-cast production. The dramatization is performed by the St. Charles Players, whose members are listed, but details about the troupe and cast roles are omitted. This is unfortunate, since the narrator, who reads with the warm, lively quality of Angela Lansbury, deserves special kudos. The entire presentation is delightful for children and adults, being well scripted, tightly edited, nicely acted and expertly engineered. Music and audio effects add to the enjoyment of the program.
