Torn from her dying mother and cast among strangers, a young girl must learn, in the wide, wide world, whom she can trust.When her father's ruin sends her mother abroad to die, young Ellen Montgomery is left to the mercy of a cold aunt on a remote farm, and then to a wider world of strangers. Slowly, through grief and hardship and unexpected kindness, she learns to bear what she cannot change, to love those who shelter her, and to find a home for her heart.First published in 1850, The Wide, Wide World was one of the first American novels to sell in the hundreds of thousands - the book that helped invent the American domestic novel and shaped the sentimental fiction of a generation. This Northlume Library edition presents the complete novel behind an original mixed-media cover illustration by JVB Atelier Designs.
