Publisher's Synopsis
Pollyanna Grows Up is a sequel to the classic children's novel Pollyanna, written by Eleanor H. Porter. The book follows the main character, Pollyanna, as she grows up and faces new challenges in her life. After recovering from a serious injury, Pollyanna travels to Europe with her aunt and discovers new cultures and experiences. She also reconnects with old friends and meets new ones, including a young girl named Jamie, who teaches her valuable lessons about life. Along the way, Pollyanna learns to be more independent and mature, but still retains her optimistic outlook on life. The novel explores themes of resilience, friendship, and the power of positive thinking.""Ho--ho! Brrrr!"" spluttered the big man, coloring like a schoolboy and throwing back his head with a hearty laugh. ""Ho--ho! Just as if--"" He broke off with a quick lifting of his hand. The next moment he was escorting a plainly very much frightened little old lady from curb to curb. If his step were a bit more pompous, and his chest a bit more full, it must have been only an unconscious tribute to the watching eyes of the little girl back at the starting-point. A moment later, with a haughtily permissive wave of his hand toward the chafing drivers and chauffeurs, he strolled back to Pollyanna.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
