Frances Hodgson Burnett

Frances Hodgson Burnett — 3 titles in the rankings, first published between 1885 and 1912. They average 8.0, above the 7.8 the whole catalogue averages.

Editor’s note Classic children’s novels that adults reread. The Secret Garden, about a sour, neglected girl who brings a locked garden and a sickly cousin back to life, is her most read book. A Little Princess, about Sara Crewe, who falls from favourite pupil to servant at a London boarding school and keeps her dignity, rates highest. Little Lord Fauntleroy, her early success, rates a touch lower.
