The youngest princess
The Youngest Princess, or Little Means to Big Ends, is a story for children by the English writer Jennie Chappell, published by Blackie and Son. On the night of a great snowstorm, three golden-haired sisters, Minnie, Maud and Margerie, sit by the fire reading a poem about three princesses who each claim to love their father best, while they wait for their own father to come home. He does not, and in the anxious times that follow, with the family scattered, a grandmother taking charge and a mystery to solve, it is the youngest who proves her love through small acts of patience and courage. The moral is gentle and plainly stated. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
