Kate Douglas Wiggin Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm
hard cover good
First published in 1903, REBECCA OF SUNNYBROOK FARM tells the tale of the downtrodden but ever-optimistic Rebecca Rowena Randall. Left penniless when her father dies, Rebecca is taken in by her two aunts--the stern Aunt Miranda and the kindly Aunt Jane. Although Aunt Miranda initially finds Rebecca's presence overwhelming and dislikable, she is slowly but surely won over by Rebecca's kind heart and sweet nature. While living with the aunts, Rebecca meets Adam Ladd, an older man (28 to Rebecca's 12) whom she nicknames "Mr. Aladdin." Adam soon becomes Rebecca's patron, supporting her through school and showering her with gifts. The book concludes with Rebecca graduating--and, although she begins to take on the responsibilities of adulthood, she still has the sunny optimism and innocence of a child. Spine is ripped but good inside.
