Saying loving goodbyes to his working-class friends, Cedric goes to England together with his mother to embrace his new fortune. His grandfather, the old earl, is a bitter old man ridden with gout and a foul temper, trusting no one. However the angelic boy elicits a profound transformation in the grandfather, which not only benefits the castle household but the whole populace of the earldom. <p> If only the old man's heart would soften toward Cedric's estranged mother, the family would be healed at last. And when another potential heir to the earldom makes a claim, it seems that everything is lost.... <p> But all things are possible through a child's innocent trust, true friendship, and unconditional love.<p><i>Little Lord Fauntleroy</i> was originally intended as a children's book, but had a great appeal to mothers. It created a fashion of long curls (based on her son Vivian's) and velvet suits with lace collars (based on Oscar Wilde's attire). The book sold more than half a million copies. In 1888 she won a lawsuit in England over the dramatic rights to Little Lord Fauntleroy, establishing a precedent that was incorporated into British copyright law in 1911. 1085162 1885 Little Lord Fauntleroy total:1039|5:204|4:334|3:379|2:99|1:23| 1039 3714 1378 96 5 1 false false Sun Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 1987 Thu Aug 14 11:20:20 -0700 2008 Fri Aug 15 13:03:35 -0700 2008 Little Lord Fauntleroy, which must be included, along with The Secret Garden and A Little Princess, among the author's better known works.
