Pollyanna

In a small New England town, a young orphan named Pollyanna arrives to live with her strict and austere Aunt Polly. Despite the challenges she faces, Pollyanna brings her optimistic outlook on life, teaching the townspeople the power of positivity through her »Glad Game«, where she finds something to be glad about in every situation. Through Pollyanna's unwavering belief in finding the good in every circumstance, the novel inspires readers to adopt a similar mindset and approach to life's challenges. ELEANOR H.
