Yes, it's a classic cinderfella theme but written with such charm that I couldn't help but love it! ( ) This is a wonderfully warm 'rags to riches' story which happens to end with Christmas. The focus is on the main character, Michael, as he struggles to imagine a place for himself in the society of the early 20th century. He starts out as the 'poor cousin' who hopelessly admires his classmate David for six years of school. Always being on the outside of his class as well as society due to lack of money, he doesn't expect to lead an easy life. This miraculously changes when a teacher discovers Michael's cousin has cheated him out of the money that was rightfully his after his parents' death. Suddenly a future going to college is possible. Having discoverd that David returns his interest, Michael now faces a happy future and gets his happy ending. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
