ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Frances Hodgson Burnett

Frances Hodgson Burnett nasceu a 24 de novembro de 1849, em Manchester, Inglaterra. A morte prematura do seu pai levou a que Frances, juntamente com a sua mãe e quatro irmãs, se mudassem para Tennessee, nos Estados Unidos da América, em busca de melhores condições de vida. Frances tinha apenas dezoito anos quando enviou uma história sua para uma popular revista literária, dando assim início a uma auspiciosa carreira de escritora. Em 1873, casou com um médico norte-americano, mudando-se com ele, poucos anos depois, para Washington. De entre as suas obras destacam-se A Princesinha e O Pequeno Lorde, mas foi com O Jardim Secreto que se tornou mundialmente conhecida. Frances Hodgson Burnett passou grande parte da sua vida entre a Inglaterra e os Estados Unidos, onde veio a falecer a 29 de outubro de 1924.
