Présentation de l'éditeur

The Randall family has seven children and not nearly enough money to care for all of them, so eleven-year-old Rebecca is sent away from her beloved Sunnybrook Farm to live with her elderly, wealthy aunts to be educated. Unfortunately, the aunts were expecting her older sister, a quiet, hard-working girl. Instead, they find Rebecca, a spirited handful, bright-eyed, independent and talkative. Can she win over her dour, overly-strict aunts with her lively and creative ways? Join us for an all-time favorite classic and find out.
