The truth is that her dear father, before he died, taught her a trick for life – the 'Glad Game' – the aim of which is to find the good in every bad situation. Pollyanna Grows Up (Paperback) Eleanor H.

She is poor, orphaned and alone but Pollyanna just feels lucky to have an aunt at all. When her father dies, Pollyanna is sent to live with her stern Aunt Polly. Eventually, however, even Pollyanna's robust optimism is put to the test when she loses the use of her legs in an accident.'Most generally there is something about everything that you can be glad about, if you keep hunting long enough to find it' With this philosophy, and her own sunny personality, she brings so much gladness to her aunt's dispirited New England town that she transforms it into a pleasant, healthy place to live. Pollyanna's philosophy of life centers around what she calls "The Glad Game": she always tries to find something to be glad about in every situation, and to always do without delay whatever she thinks is right. Pollyanna tells the story of Pollyanna Whittier, a young girl who goes to live with her wealthy Aunt Polly after her father's death. Download cover art Download CD case insert Pollyanna
