Pollyanna

By Eleanor H. Porter
Pollyanna by Eleanor H. Porter digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Alone in her big house in Beldingsville, Vermont, Miss Polly welcomes neither friends nor companions of any sort. And so when a letter arrives notifying her that her orphaned niece Pollyanna has been sent east to live with her, the cantankerous Miss Polly braces for her cherished calm to be shattered. Pollyanna seems to have little to be grateful for, especially when her aunt sends her to live in the stuffy attic of her stuffy manor. But rather than sulk over her humble accommodations, Pollyanna rejoices in the marvelous view that her attic window affords. She calls her positive attitude the "glad game," a trick her father taught her to make the best of any situation. As she introduces the glad game to the downtrodden residents of Beldingsville, Pollyanna begins to rejuvenate the small New England town, proving that optimism and a good-hearted disposition can bring joy to anyone—maybe even stubborn, ornery Miss Polly . . .    This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.

Pollyanna Reviews

4.0
Slightly Smiling Face“What a delightful read! The story is heartwarming. Pollyanna is a nice girl, but I can't see her as a very special character; at first she reminds me of Anne Shirley (from Anne of Green Gables) and later on she reminds me of Katy (from What Katy Did). There are lots of drama, and it's kinda preachy... but I don't really mind it. Say, can you count how many "I'm glad" is in this book?”
“I read Pollyanna more times than I can remember as a child. And as an adult I am still captivated by the story of this engaging joyful girl that changes the lives of those around her. Her cheerful excitement over everything that Aunt Polly tries to punish her with is so amusing. A wonderful childhood favourite.”
