My Choice: A Little Princess
Covers:
There were a lot of covers for A Little Princess! Here are my least favorites:
These are my favorites:
This was a super hard decision because there were so many good covers! But I think my favorite is this one:
I don’t usually like baby pink but it works nicely with the blue. Plus this cover captures the time period without being tacky or seeming too old. Its very timeless.
Which cover do you like best? Let me know in the comments!!
I love the last one, the red one with the pretty flowers. Very colorful and festive!

I like that one too! I feel like it would go really in a set of classics with similar covers

It’s so hard to choose, I really like a lot of them. But the one with the dog on the cover wins for me!

I think that one is my favorite too (isn’t that the Barnes and Noble edition?) In fact I think we have that one. I kind of like the Dell Yearling one though too, and the one with the dog leaning on her shoulder. That one’s kinda cute. 🙂

I think because I know the story, I like the one with the girl getting out of the carriage the best.

Oh my goodness. I LOVE this book. I should however, not have watched the film before I read the book (I read it years later and wrote about it in my dissertation). There is one major difference and my Daddy issues could not cope with it at all!

I didn’t know it was a movie? I am surprised that none of the covers were movie covers (or were they? There are a couple that I guess could be?) Did you like the book or movie better?
