Frances Hodgson Burnett, a British novelist and playwright, gained fame for her beloved children's novels, including "Little Lord Fauntleroy," "A Little Princess," and "The Secret Garden." After her father's death, her family faced financial struggles, leading to their emigration to the U.S. in 1865. At 19, she began writing to support them, eventually marrying a doctor in Knoxville. Her early success with short stories and the novel "That Lass o' Lowrie's" set the stage for her literary career, which would leave a lasting impact on children's literature.
