bought this little novel in the LIDL this past summer thanks to Gaeta, one of the Forero Time Stories, warn us of its existence, since he works in the editorial that took him out. With him, I also did a very nice edition of Tom Sawyer. Recent titles that have driven them have escaped me, but some already had them and has given me less angry. The truth is that I expected more of the familiar story into a film and even anime. It seemed too childish, even for a summer afternoon is not bad.
The story revolves around Jerusha Abbott, an orphan girl of 17 years who loves writing. By exceeding the maximum age for being at the orphanage (16 years), the director's office called to inform him that one of the benefactors of the institution is willing to pay for college to train as a writer. This mysterious character is only seen by Jerusha through its shadow, in which she provides a long legs, so he christened as Daddy Long Legs (common name in English of a very long-legged spider). The only condition that the new guardian of the girl, who calls himself John Smith to remain anonymous, is that she will be sending letters to him have a day of his adventures. In college befriend Sallie McBride and Julia Pendleton, whose uncle, Jarvis, will be a close friend of Jerusha.
