I had never heard of this book (found randomly browsing at library) and I found it charming! I adored the character of Emily and found myself rooting for her. Her kindness and hard working nature is so admirable. About 3/4ths of the way it got a bit slow and a slightly abrupt ending but overall really good! Give this forgotten classic a read!
