Five years later her mother died and - like many other women of her time - she began writing short stories for popular magazines to support her family. Her first novel, \u003cb\u003eThat Lass o' Lowrie's\u003c\/b\u003e (1877), brought her instant fame on both sides of the Atlantic.In 1873 she had married Swan Burnett, a physician, and it was for the two sons of the marriage that she wrote \u003cb\u003eLittle Lord Fauntleroy\u003c\/b\u003e, which was first serialized in the children's monthly magazine \u003ci\u003eSt. Nicholas.\u003c\/i\u003e When published in book form in October 1886, it went immediately on to the bestseller lists alongside Tolstoy's War and Peace and Rider Haggard's King Solomon's Mines\u003ci\u003e.\u003c\/i\u003e Mrs. Burnett wrote many other novels, for both children and adults, as well as plays and short stories, but she is best remembered for \u003cb\u003eThe Secret Garden\u003c\/b\u003e (1911) and \u003cb\u003eA Little Princess\u003c\/b\u003e (1905).Her marriage to Dr. Burnett ended in divorce in 1898 and two years later she remarried - but, again, the marriage ended, this time in separation. She became an American citizen in 1905, though she travelled frequently to Europe. She died at her home on Long Island a few weeks before her seventy-fifth birthday.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 256\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.83 x 8.28 x 6.38 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 10, 1995\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuiz Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Little Lord Fauntleroy (Unabridged)\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Middle Grades, 4-8\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.1\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11\u003c\/div\u003e\n                ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53722283540844,"sku":"9780679444749","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0989\/3019\/6844\/files\/b2dbcb5a807fe4d86fdfa4e950314be8.webp?v=1778192138","url":"https:\/\/pattansenterprise.com\/products\/little-lord-fauntleroy-illustrated-c-e-brock-hardcover","provider":"Pattansenterprise","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
