Overview

A little kindness from anyone makes young Miss Fox-Seton glow. Now she has just pleased herself with a nice idea: how to make her plain, brown dress look a bit closer to the new style for the year -- for her dress must last longer, since she has hardly a penny to her name.

Being of few pennies hardly means being of few resources, however. Miss Fox-Seton keeps herself smart and neat, and with honest cheer applies herself to all the small employments that come her way.

And now she takes joy in the new invitation -- for that sharp-tongued Lady Maria Bayne had just invited her to the country!

Francis Hodgson Burnett (1849-1924), author of The Secret Garden, here tells the tale of an appealing young woman who succeeds in life despite starting off with but the slightest of means.
