(4.8 stars; 13 reviews)

Pollyanna visits Boston for the summer and stays with the grumpy, miserable, yet very wealthy Ruth Carew. Lonely in a big city away from her old companions and forbidden from talking to strangers, Pollyanna begins to despair of ever making new friends. Through her teenage years and into adulthood, will Pollyanna and her glad game be able to make a difference in the light of persistent grumpiness, disabilities, crippling poverty, and a major personal loss? - Summary by Eliza

(5 stars)

This book is the best!! I just love it! Pollyanna’s voice isn’t the best, and I think Rachel would’ve been better for Pollyanna, but Jenn Broda is okay.
