What Our Customers Say...

Description

Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding

The June 1914 twentieth impression of this work, which was first published in February 1913.

Illustrated with a frontispiece and seven plates by Stockton Mulford. Collated, complete.

A children’s novel about an optimistic orphan who transforms the lives of those around her with her “glad game,” a philosophy of finding something to be glad about in every circumstance.

With twelve pages of advertisements to the rear.

Former owner's inscription, dated 1914, to the front free endpaper.

Due to the book's fame, "Pollyanna" has become a byword for someone who, like the title character, has an unfailingly optimistic outlook.
