Sara Crewe, or What Happened at Miss Minchin's

Frances Hodgson Burnett · Charles Scribner's Sons (New York) · 1888

Book publication on 29 February 1888 came right on the heels of the St. Nicholas Magazine serialization, which had run from December 1887 through February 1888. Burnett later expanded this novella into the full-length A Little Princess (Scribner's, 1905), a different, much longer book that should not be confused with the 1888 first edition.
