THE ENGLISH ORPHANS...IS A GREAT CINDERELLA STORY! 289 PAGES IN PRINT!
• This volume includes a “Detailed Biography” of our author, Mary Jane Holmes.
The story is about a poor family who sail to America to make a better life. The parents get sick and die and the children are sent to the poor house. The pretty sister gets adopted by a rich family and the plain sister is left in the poor house and only later
is taken in by a kind widow. The plain sister is the main character and she suffers from slights from her pretty sister who pretends not to know her. However in the end, the plain sister ends up being accomplished and kind and cultured while the pretty sister ends up being spoiled and pampered and despised. It is the classic Cinderella tale retold in a less magical manner, however just as appealing and pleasing to the sense of justice.
