Description

Eleanor was a pitied and looked down upon child. From birth, her looks stood out as different and “unwanted." Her mother wanted a boy anyway. Eleanor never had it easy, but she didn't have it hard like the poor newsboys that she and her father fed dinner to in the lodging home. After many unfortunate events, she learns to become the brave, confident, and lovely girl she always wished to be. Little did she know how much more her future would hold. This book is filled with many well-illustrated full- and partial-page pictures, and large paragraphs of approximately 10 or more sentences on each page (with the exception of full-length picture pages). 38 pgs, pb.
