Little Lord Fauntleroy Audiobook (Unabridged)

" I have to say Little Lord Fontleroy was more of a lackadaisical stroll through the park, which was not was I expected. I liked the characters and the moral, but the actual writing was less than I expected from the author of my favorite book, The Secret Garden. But! Now I have read it and I really do like the storyline. "

" Super cute, but her other books are better. "

" A sweet read. Good for youth. "

" This was an adorable read, but somehow it didn't grip me as much as The Secret Garden did. Maybe it's just me, but Cedric is a little too flawless and the story is all too smooth with no real conflict except for the last quarter of the book. Apart from that, it's a lovely children's story that is worth the read. "

" also very charming, yet predictable. fun re-read, though. :) "

" One of my favourit books when I was younger. "

" Darling, predictable, happy book. I love this author for "pick-me-up" reading. "

" unbelievably unrealistic portrait of a child, makes me wonder if Ms. Burnett had ever spent any real time with one, however, as enjoyable for this reason as any other. "

" I may have read this a very long time ago, but I didn't remember enough of it that I'm calling it as read this year. I've found some Burnett that I KNOW is new to me, as well, and was free for my new Kindle, so there may be more. "

" Very very sweet! One of my favorite books whan I was little. Something I would want my children to read. "

" Though not nearly as good as her other children stories such as: A Little Princess, or The Secret Garden I found it enjoyable to some extent. "

" Fantastic movie with a young Rick Schroder if you can find it!!!!! "

" It's absurd to love a book about a perfectly good boy, but this one is lovely each time I read it! This particular edition has several typos, though, and that is rather off-putting. The book still remains a favourite despite it all! "

" An enjoyable book with beautifully written comparisons between the English aristocrasy and American working classes. The surface story is the classic tale of rags to riches while the family reconcilation resulting from the boy's presence adds depth to the story. "

" I've never understood why this moralistic book was such a hit in the author's lifetime....perhaps it had a message for the Edwardians which doesn't reverberate for us. "

" If you need to read a story with a perfectly happy ending, read one of Burnett's. "

" sad, but turns out to be wonderful as the mother and grandfather come to like each other. "

" Though my least favorite of Burnett's novels, I still enjoy reading about the sweet little boy and how he changes the heart's of his family. "

" This was such a cute book! It was an easy read and kept me entertained the whole time. This story reminded me of the childlike qualities that I would like to develop in myself, and shows how one child can make a difference in so many lives. "

" I really enjoyed this book. The reviews are fairly mixed so I wasn't sure what to expect, but it was a quick read and since I don't remember reading Secret Garden, maybe it was better. Nothing to freshly compare it to. I'll have to read it soon and see which I like more. "

" Fauntleroy's mother has been added to my collection of wonderful mothers in literature. I love the Little Lord as well; sweet thing. "

" Loved this heartwarming tale. Not sure why I haven't read it sooner. I love the little princess and this is the male version. Guess I needed to get it free on my ipad first. "

" I learned that even children can do good things. "

" One of my favorite children's classics (but good for adults too!). It helps remind me the importance of having a positive nature. "

" Darling, predictable, happy book. I love this author for "pick-me-up" reading. "

" One of my all-time favorite books. Such a sweet story about goodness. A lovely book that I have read many times. "

" The story is okay so far. Having read A Little Princess and The Secret Garden, I'm quite familiar with Burnett's way of writing so, yeah, I'm having fun reading. The little lord is adorable... XD "

" This is a sweet book, and it certainly gives Paul something to aspire to. How fun to find out you're a Lord and will some day be an Earl. My only complaint is that Little Lord Fauntleroy really is too good to be true. "

" I love Frances Hodgson Burnett's books. "

" One of my favourit books when I was younger. "

" A GREAT book, everyone should read it. It shows how everything can change just because of one pure and gentle heart. All the same, there's Pollyanna that shows the same thing. "

" I read this book several times as a child, and even now as an adult, I find myself charmed by little Cedric and how he manages to win over the heart of his grandfather. It's definitely a type of literature that you won't be able to find these days. "

" I read this myself and then listened to it with the kids. I loved the message of the power of a mother's influence. I liked the goodness in the book and the message that we are happier as we serve and miserable as we are selfish. We all enjoyed it very much. "

" This is one of those I loved as a child, but now I am finding that I can rather too easily put it down. "

" It was better than I thought it would be. Very precious. I downloaded it for free on my Kindle. "

" Great little book. Makes you want to be a better person. The kind of book that I need to read frequently. :) "

" Loved this heartwarming tale. Not sure why I haven't read it sooner. I love the little princess and this is the male version. Guess I needed to get it free on my ipad first. "

" Such a sweet and adorable book! It was quite similar to her other books, but I still loved it! "

" Pure syrupy indulgence. Like drinking a potful of saccharine during a Thomas Kinkade exhibition. "

" omigosh..... This book is sooooo good. "

" Finally got around to reading this. Didn't realize it was by the same author as Secret Garden and Little Princess. A male version of Pollyanna perhaps. Too good to be true. But a sweet story all the same. Full of qualities we'd like to see in an Earl-to-be. A quick, easy read too. "
