Pollyanna's eternal optimism has made her one of the most beloved characters in American literature. First published in 1913, her story spawned the formation of "Glad" clubs all over the country, devoted to playing Pollyanna's famous game. Pollyanna has since sold over one million copies, been translated into several languages, and has become both a Broadway play and a Disney motion picture.

The sequel to Pollyanna finds the effervescent orphan on the verge of womanhood. Her crippled legs cured, Pollyanna takes her glad heart to cheer new friends in Boston before travelling to Europe with Aunt Polly and Dr Chilton. But growing up brings sorrows as well as joys, and when she returns after six years, with Dr Chilton dead and Aunt Polly fallen on hard times, even Pollyanna has trouble maintaining her usual cheerful outlook.

Pollyanna's story continues! Now a mother of three, Pollyanna is living in a suburb of Boston. Follow Pollyanna, Jimmy and their brood through the ups and downs of daily life. You can be sure that whatever comes, Pollyanna will see it through...with the help of the Glad Game, of course! After the death of Eleanor H Porter, her publisher asked Harriet Lummis Smith to continue the beloved Pollyanna series. Harriet was an established author in her own right, and she was the first Black teacher in Boston Public Schools.

For generations, the sunny philosophy of the "glad girl" has touched the hearts of millions of readers. In this book, the beloved heroine reappears to make new friends and renew old acquaintances. How Pollyanna helps countless "square pegs" find a new niche in life and how she earns a golden horseshoe make a story of true inspiration and delight.

And this time she introduces to us a new heroine - charming Rosemary Lane, orphan daughter of a French mother and an American father. Discouraged and depressed, Rosemary is taken into Pollyanna's home, and under the loving guidance of her new friend changes from a sad, unhappy girl, to a fascinating young woman. How this comes about; how Rosemary finds a long-lost relative; how she and the Pendletons mend broken hearts and lives; and what is the fate of the young men who fall in love with Rosemary, are all part of this story of worth-while and gallant people... \—————- Those who already know and love Pollyanna and the Glad Books will welcome this tale of her war-time activities, written by an authoress new to the series. Pollyanna and her daughter, picnicking on the banks of a stream in April sunshine, notice the slight and lovely form of the sad, young Rosemary Lane, and invite her to join them. Learning the story of the young girl, that she is sick, lonely and downcast, Pollyanna insists on her coming to live with her, glad of someone to lessen her own loneliness with her husband, son and elder daughter away serving their country. In the peaceful atmosphere of the Pendleton home, where the Glad Game has never been quite forgotten, Rosemary quickly recovers her health and finds herself happier that she had ever believed possible. And when Pollyanna's son flies home on short leave, there are reasons for believing that ere long the tie between her and Rosemary will be closer than that of mother and adopted daughter.
