Most people, writes Jerusha Abbot to Daddy-Long-Legs, run life
as a race, at the end of which they are too tired to be happy.
""I've decided to sit down by the way and pile up a lot of
little happinesses." "
Here is a charming novel of an orphan who, through pluck and
good cheer, wins the patronage of an anonymous trustee of her
orphanage she calls "Daddy Long Legs." He sends the clever Jerusha
to a girl's college, where she thrives. Her story is odyssey of
laughter, love and learning.
Here is one of the most empowering books of all time, a "girl's"
book full of fun and whimsy, yet seriously enriching.
"Daddy Long Legs" has been adapted on stage and screen many
times, most famously as the Shirley Temple movie "Curly Top, " and
the Fred Astaire-Leslie Caron movie "Daddy Long Legs."
"Daddy Long Legs" is a classic that still amuses and
inspires.
