Pollyanna and Pollyanna Grows Up: Two Glad Books

by Eleanor H. Porter, Stockton Mulford (Illustrator), H. Weston Taylor (Illustrator)

Overview

Eleanor H. Porter's 1913 classic is combined with its 1915 sequel in a single volume, with comfortable 14-point type and the original black-and-white illustrations by Stockton Mulford and H. Weston Taylor. The books are unabridged in this edition but have had some spelling and punctuation updates.

Pollyanna is orphaned and moves in with her strict, duty-bound aunt. Pollyanna's intentional and contagious gladness spreads through the entire town, but it has no effect on Aunt Polly--until something happens that endangers Pollyanna's own ability to "just be glad." In the included sequel, Pollyanna goes to Boston to stay with a wealthy widow whose only nephew has been missing for eight years. Ruth Carew is a bitter, lonely woman who has given up on the search--until Pollyanna moves in with her. Can Pollyanna help Mrs. Carew find her lost nephew, or learn to appreciate life even in his absence?
