Frances Hodgson Burnett--best known for writing The Secret Garden, Little Lord Fauntleroy, and The Little Princess--had a difficult childhood, losing her father when she was very young and moving with her family from England to Tennessee in hopes of a better life.

Un petit bijou que j'aimerais beaucoup voir traduit en français, comme tous les livres de l'autrice d'ailleurs.
