Le petit Lord Fauntleroy

The company's service was good, but the book itself was full of printing errors. A large speech was absent at the end, and I caught that only because I'd looked it up; the ending made no sense without it. There was also computer code on the pages here and there in the middle of text. I definitely don't recommend this publisher's version of the book.

A beautiful tale of tenderness and love, this story will capture your heart! It is one of those books that inspire the reader to be a better individual, and the warmth and innocence of the time period glow from its pages. I highly recommend this book to all who love a tender and sweet fulfilling story.

I have always loved "A Little Princess" and "The Secret Garden," but I had not even heard of this book until recently. It is the simple and gentle story of how a little boy's innocence and belief that everyone is good transforms his miserly and cruel grandfather into an admirable man. If you enjoy Burnett's other stories, this one is not to be missed.

I'm reading the classic children's books from long ago. I read Hodgson's Secret Garden and Little Princess before I read Fauntleroy. The first two are more polished, you can tell Fauntleroy was an early writing. I admit that I grew tired of Fauntleroy's silky, golden locks after the first hundred or so mentions of it. It was an enjoyable read, though I doubt today's youth would find it interesting - no post-apocalyptic mayhem for them.

The story takes you through the early years in the world of a delightful little boy, his perceptions and a grandfather's realization of what is truly important in life, teaching us all a very valuable lesson.

This is an example of the difficulties of shopping online.
I had read the book several years ago and wanted to give a volume as a gift. This printing is unacceptable - unpleasant font, cramped pages and flimsy binding. You will do better with the purchase of a used hardcover volume

I ordered this audio CD because I like childrens' classic literature and because I like to listen to audio books while on trips. When this audio CD arrived I was disappointed because on the cover it said MP3 CD. I do not have an MP3 player and have not been able to listen to the CD in the car like I planned. This product was advertised as an audiobook without mention of MP3 on your website.

First, its so sugary sweet as the interwebs say 'diabeetus' will be imminent. you have the basics, poor father-less kid makes friends with EVERYONE, crotchity relative they never knew about is richer then Midas it seems and suddenly wants poor kid to come be the heir. Mother is slighted but content because her kid is a doofus and doesn't even know she's being shunned by persnickity rich relative and by the time kid gets used to hte idea of being rich and the old codger starts to be a nice-ish person...bam just like clockwork the contender shows up. And the rest of hte book is just as predictable.
Victorians and early Edwardians needed to lay off the sugar in their stories.
