A Little Princess
Frances Hodgson Burnett's 1905 novel, told slowly. A warm schoolroom, then a cold garret, and an imagination rich enough to furnish it.
Retold for sleep from A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett, first published in 1905 and long out of copyright. The story is Burnett's; every sentence here is our own.
Low, slow and spacious, a gentle cadence with long pauses, tuned for the dark and made to be drifted off to.
