Have you ever heard of a little girl being stolen from her cradle? Maybe it's me! If we were people in a novel, that would solve the dilemma, right? It's a strange thing! Not knowing one's identity is exciting and romantic. Maybe I'm not American, many people aren't. Maybe I'm descended from the ancient Romans, or maybe I'm a Viking, or maybe I'm the daughter of a Russian exiled in Siberian prisons, or maybe I'm a gypsy, and I think I am because I have a very wandering soul, even though I haven't had the chance to develop it yet. Jean Webster: She is an American writer who wrote a collection of the most famous and wonderful international novels, one of which has been translated into more than 18 languages. Her distinctive story leapt to the stage, then to the world of television and cinema, to appear on the small and big screen through the most beautiful series and films engraved in our hearts and minds. Her novels were inspired by her travels, imaginations, and interactions with various segments of society, as well as her reformist ideas for many societal issues. Daddy-Long-Legs was one of the most wonderful novels, containing many reformist ideas for the condition of orphans and encouraging improved treatment of them in institutions concerned with their affairs.
