Daddy-Long-Legs. Dear Enemy

Jean Webster 1876—1916 — an American writer. She gained fame with the publication of her work Daddy-Long-Legs in 1913, which was enthusiastically received by readers, critics, and theater and film directors. The main character Judy Abbott — a pupil of... an orphanage — is incredibly fortunate: a mysterious benefactor is willing to pay for the girl's college education, asking in return only that she write him letters about her daily life and studies. Lively, with a strong and independent character, Judy fulfills this request, not suspecting until she graduates who this mysterious guardian is. Dear Enemy — a sequel to the epistolary work. Here, Sally McBride, Judy's friend, takes on the task of turning the orphanage into a cozy home for a hundred wards. Both works are filled with lively humor and optimism, which naturally weaves into the lives and everyday experiences of the main heroines. Illustrations on the cover and title by A. Vlasova. For middle school age.
