A wonderful classic perfect for preteens and teens, looking to practice their English but still have an enjoyable read,
To look out for:
Islamic values: Children steal apples. In one scene, man convinces a child that they ate a poisoned apple, and would die within an hour, but is lying.
Romance: Several mentions of ‘beaus’ (the 1900s term for ‘boyfriends’)
Violence: Emily’s father dies of consumption (tuberculosis). A few mildy frightening scenes such as one where the main character believes that she will die. Mentions of a character’s mother, who supposedly ran off with a lover (she really fell into a well and died).
