Thankfully, Pollyanna has a special power-the ability to be glad about whatever comes her way. She calls it the 'glad game.' When tragedy strikes, Pollyanna's optimistic attitude is severely tested, until she learns to find happiness again. Pollyanna is ranked among the best-selling novels and has stood the test of time as it finds a place among the most loved children's stories.
