Read by Susan Umpleby
The Poor Little Rich Girl is a children’s fantasy about a little girl named Gwendolyn who is lonely and longs for a friend. But she is isolated by rich parents who ignore her and left to the care of servants who are indifferent. Her nanny’s carelessness with some medicine plunges Gwendolyn into a bewildering world in which metaphors literally come to life. (Summary by Susan Umpleby) (7 hr 14 min)

Reviews
A tale of psychological abuse
Phxjennifer
A fascinating story of adult power plays and both casual and deliberate emotional abuse of a child. The dream sequence, induced by fever, exhaustion and a careless drug overdose, is amazing. I only take off half a point for the extreme ( sometimes painful) unevenness of volume in each chapter and from chapter to chapter.
Too much like Alice in Wonderland for me

Amazing

this is so touching, and it makes you wonder if things like this ever happen.
