Daddy-Long-Legs tells the story of a young orphan girl, Jerusha Abbott, who is unexpectedly sent to college by an unknown benefactor who is a trustee of the orphanage where she grew up. The benefactor requires that she write him a letter every month, but he will never write her back. The story is composed of a prolog and Jerusha's seventy-six letters, some short and some long.
A stage adaptation had a long and sucessful run and four movies were inspired by the book and play -- in 1919 with Mary Pickford, in 1931 with Janet Gaynor, in 1955 with Fred Astaire and Leslie Caron, and Shirley Temple's "Curly Top" in 1935.
It's a light hearted romance, and much more. If you haven't read it, sample the first few letters FREE and see why we decided to add it to our list of books.
