The Poor Little Rich Girl is a play written by Eleanor Gates that was first published in 1913. It is a three-act play that combines elements of fact and fantasy to tell the story of a wealthy young girl named Gwendolyn who is neglected by her parents and left in the care of her servants. Gwendolyn is unhappy and lonely, and her imagination runs wild as she creates a world of make-believe to escape her reality. However, her life takes a turn when she falls ill and her parents are forced to confront their neglectful behavior. The play explores themes of family, wealth, and the importance of love and attention in a child’s life. The Poor Little Rich Girl was adapted into a film in 1917 and has been adapted for the stage numerous times since its original publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
