Little Lord Fauntleroy

Young Cedric Errol is a kind-hearted and noble-spirited boy living with his widowed mother in New York City. Cedric's life takes an unexpected turn when he learns he is the heir to the earldom of Dorincourt in England.
As Cedric embraces his new role as Lord Fauntleroy, he brings his warmth, compassion, and innate goodness to the grand estate. Despite the challenges and intrigues of aristocratic society, Cedric's genuine kindness and unyielding belief in the goodness of others endear him to all he encounters, including his stern grandfather, the Earl.
