I read this as a follow up to [b:A Secret Princess|59116396|A Secret Princess|Margaret Stohl|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1632945346l/59116396._SY75_.jpg|93218067]. I was super familiar with the other two novels in the mashup, but either hadn't read or hadn't remembered Little Lord Fauntelroy. I can't tell if it's a children's book or not because it was a slow read. The little lord is an American kid, whose English dad, a well-born third-born, died out of favor with his own father, the gouty Earl of Dorincourt. Shit happens to the heir and the spare, and Cedrid gets The Call. He doesn't know what to make of it, but he's most perfect little seven-year-old angel child you've ever heard of. He and his mother, whom he calls Dearest, make their way to England and the cranky nobleman. Will they or won't they win him over with their goodness?
