Haworth's (1879). By: Frances Hodgson Burnett by Frances Hodgson Burnett Pdf

Frances Eliza Hodgson Burnett (24 November 1849 - 29 October 1924) was a British novelist and playwright. She is best known for the three children's novels Little Lord Fauntleroy (published in 1885-1886), A Little Princess (1905), and The Secret Garden (1911). Frances Eliza Hodgson was born in Cheetham, Manchester, England. After her father died in 1852, the family fell on straitened circumstances and in 1865 emigrated to the United States, settling in Jefferson City, Tennessee. There Frances began writing to help earn money for the family, publishing stories in magazines from the age of 19. In 1870, her mother died, and in 1872 Frances married Swan Burnett, who became a medical doctor. The Burnetts lived for two years in Paris, where their two sons were born, before returning to the United States to live in Washington, D.C. Burnett then began to write novels, the first of which (That Lass o' Lowrie's), was published to good reviews. Little Lord Fauntleroy was published in 1886 and made her a popular writer of children's fiction, although her romantic adult novels written in the 1890s were also popular. She wrote and helped to produce stage versions of Little Lord Fauntleroy and A Little Princess. Burnett enjoyed socializing and lived a lavish lifestyle. Beginning in the 1880s, she began to travel to England frequently and in the 1890s bought a home there, where she wrote The Secret Garden. Her oldest son, Lionel, died of tuberculosis in 1890, which caused a relapse of the depression she had struggled with for much of her life.She divorced Swan Burnett in 1898, married Stephen Townsend in 1900, and divorced him in 1902. A few years later she settled in Nassau County, Long Island, where she died in 1924 and is buried in Roslyn Cemetery. In 1936 a memorial sculpture by Bessie Potter Vonnoh was erected in her honour in Central Park's Conservatory Garden. The statue depicts her two famous Secret Garden characters, Mary and Dickon.Childhood in Manchester: Frances Eliza Hodgson was born in 1849 at 141 York Street in Cheetham, Manchester. She was the third of five children of Edwin Hodgson, an ironmonger from Doncaster in Yorkshire, and his wife Eliza Boond, from a well-to-do Manchester family. Hodgson owned a business in Deansgate, selling ironmongery and brass goods. The family lived comfortably, employing a maid and a nurse-maid. Frances had two older brothers and two younger sisters. In 1852 the family moved about a mile further along York Street to a more spacious home in a newly-built terrace, opposite St Luke's Church, with greater access to outdoor space. Barely a year later, with his wife pregnant for a fifth time, Hodgson died suddenly of a stroke, leaving the family without an income. Frances was cared for by her grandmother while her mother took over running the family business. From her grandmother, who bought her books, Frances learned to love reading, in particular her first book, The Flower Book, which had coloured illustrations and poems. Because of their reduced income, Eliza had to give up their family home and moved with her children to live with relatives in Seedley Grove, Tanners Lane, Pendleton, Salford, where they lived in a house with a large enclosed garden in which Frances enjoyed playing. For a year Frances went to a small dame school run by two women, where she first saw a book about fairies. When her mother moved the family to Islington Square, Salford, Frances mourned the lack of flowers and gardens. Their new home was located in a gated square of faded gentility adjacent to an area with severe overcrowding and poverty that "defied description," according to Friedrich Engels, who lived in Manchester at the time......

That Lass O' Lowrie's (1877), by Frances Hodgson Burnett, Novel--Illustrated by Frances Hodgson Burnett Pdf

First novel by the author of The Little Princess, The Secret Garden and Little Lord Fauntleroy.Frances Hodgson Burnett (1849-1924) was an English- American playwright and author. She was best known for her childrenaes stories, in particular The Secret Garden (1911) and Little Lord Fauntleroy (1886). Her first story was published in Godeyaes Ladyaes Book in 1868. Her main writing talent was combining realistic detail of workingclass life with a romantic plot. Her first novel was published in 1877; That Lass oâe(tm) Lowrieâe(tm)s was a story of Lancashire life. After moving to Washington, D.C., Burnett wrote the novels Haworthâe(tm)s (1879), Louisiana (1880), A Fair Barbarian (1881), and Through One Administration (1883), as well as a play, Esmeralda (1881), written with William Gillette. Her later works include Sara Crewe, or, What Happened at Miss Minchinâe(tm)s (1888) - later rewritten as A Little Princess (1905); and A Lady of Quality (1896) - considered one of the best of her plays. The Lost Prince was published in 1915, and The Head of the House of Coombe was published in Canada in 1922. During World War I, Burnett put her beliefs about what happens after death into writing with her novella The White People (1917).

The Secret Garden (Large Print Edition) by Frances Hodgson Burnett (Illustrated) by Frances Hodgson Burnett Pdf

Presenting the Large Print edition of The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett, which features 16-point sized font and above. Also available is The Essential Frances Hodgson Burnett: The Secret Garden, Little Lord Fauntleroy, A Little Princess, and The Lost Prince with an introduction by Nicholas Tamblyn, and illustrations by Katherine Eglund. This collection is part of The Essential Series by Golding Books. Rare among children's fiction, Frances Hodgson Burnett's fantasy novels have touched the imagination of readers for generations like few others. Her children's classic The Secret Garden, with its strong female character and unique coming of age story, has greatly appealed to children (in particular girls), yet the truth is they were written for, and will appeal to, readers of any age that enjoy naturalist and classic literary fiction. Her novels contain a deeply humanist message, and in promoting a regard for nature and simply for life itself, while being feel-good stories they are also written with an impassioned sense of what is true and with rare realism. The books could be called children's literature (or large print books for children), young adult novels or feminist fiction, but this is finally as incorrect and limiting as calling the books of Mark Twain or Robert Louis Stevenson suited to boys or to men, when they have a great appeal and meaning for readers that goes beyond these false labels. Singular among large print fiction novels of all kinds, The Secret Garden large print novel has something in it that will speak to everyone. Frances Eliza Hodgson was born in 1849 in Cheetham, England. Her father died in 1852, and the family immigrated in 1865 to near Knoxville, Tennessee. Frances wrote to help earn money for the family, and published stories in magazines from 1868. Her mother died in 1870, and she married Swan Burnett in 1872. They lived for two years in Paris, having two sons, Lionel and Vivian, then settled in Washington D.C. Frances wrote novels to critical and public acclaim, in the form of both children's and romantic adult fiction. She wrote and helped produce stage versions of her two successful books, Little Lord Fauntleroy and A Little Princess. Lionel died of tuberculosis in 1890, after which Frances relapsed into depression. In the mid-1890s she bought Great Maytham Hall in Kent, England, inspiring her to write The Secret Garden. In 1898, after two years living separately, the Burnetts were divorced; in 1900 she married Stephen Townsend, but divorced him in 1902. She settled soon after in Nassau County, Long Island, where she continued to write, and died there in 1924.
