Judy Abbott is an 18-year-old girl living in an orphanage. One day Judy is informed that a mysterious millionaire has accepted to pay for her education and make one of her biggest dreams come true.

Judy feels that for the first time in her life, she has someone she can consider her family. But things are not going to go well for Judy because the rich man intends to remain anonymous and asks Judy to write him a letter only about his academic progress.

But after all, who is this generous and mysterious man really? Can Judy meet him one day?

Judy Abbott’s story begins on a sad Wednesday. Wednesday is considered the worst day of the month.
On the first Wednesday of the month, donors and the wealthy came to visit the John Greer Orphanage, and before that, the children had to endure a lot of pressure.

Lighting the wall and table chairs, preparing the dining utensils and arranging all the boards and other small and large tasks like this. Ninety-seven orphanages had to be clean and tidy to welcome guests.

Judy was as usual and did not know that this Wednesday was going to be the most memorable Wednesday of her life.

Daddy Long Legs

The enduring story of the talented author Baba Langduraz, the famous author Jane Webster’s niece, Mark Tavan, and the son of one of America’s most prestigious publishers, is readable and lovable, no matter what the story.

want to paint to calm down. The only thing that helps me in these times is to pray that nothing bad has happened and that prayer and prayer and prayer. Baba Lang, I am writing long, we are all fine, but… do not believe me

Babajon, as much as the college entertainment entertains me, its lessons are not difficult.

Most of the time I do not understand what the girls are saying and why they are laughing.
Their jokes are about the past, in which everyone except me shares.

I feel like a stranger in this world and I do not understand the language of the people.

No one here knows that I grew up in an orphanage. I told Sally that my parents had died and that an old man had sent me to college.

You do not know how much I want to be like other girls, but the memory of “Jean Greer Charitable” which is the perspective of my childhood is the biggest difference between me and them.

I was accepted to the basketball team. The school is getting better and better day by day. I love the girls, the teachers, the classrooms and the college garden and all the food.

I was only going to write you a letter once a month, if I did several black sheets every few days.

Finally, I was so excited that every time I saw a new story, I wanted to talk about it with someone. I hope this forgiveness forgives me.
Dear Babalang Deraz, Thank you for Christmas. I like fox skin, necklaces and ولی but I love you most of all. But your father should not lust after me like this.

How do you expect me to be able to concentrate and work on my future life as you get used to the pleasures of life? Now I can guess who sent the Sunday ice cream and the Christmas tree to the Jean Greer Institute.

God has the right to be happy in the light of these good deeds all your life.

Dear Babalang Daraz. where are you. Remember God to you. I’m very lonely and I want someone to remember me. Oh Dad, I wish I knew you, then whenever one of us was sad we would comfort each other.

I do not think I can stay in Lock Willow any longer. I’m going to get out of here. I have a lonely illness and I am thirsty for family.

About the author of Daddy Long Legs : Jane Webster and her other works
Jane Webster was a famous American writer and playwright who became a prominent artistic figure in the early twentieth century. Some of his stories became very profitable for film and television producers, one of which was this novel.

Alice Jane Chandler Webster was born in 1876 into a family with strong literary ties in New York.

His mother was the niece of the famous writer Samuel Clemens (aka Mark Twain) and his father was Clemens’ business director and later a publisher.

She grew up in a very different home run by her father, mother, grandparents, and grandparents, who were heavily involved in fasting, including justice and women’s rights.

The influence of women in the family only intensified with the death of her father when Jane was only a teenager.

Jane Webster enrolled at Wasar College and pursued a master’s degree in English and economics.
Webster had repeatedly expressed deep concern about the lives of the poor in New York, especially the homeless, orphans, and delinquent children.

Also, while he was in Vassar, the first seeds of the novel were sown in the life story of Judy Abbott.

He later worked as a journalist and, always with a strong sociological perspective, was able to write other novels.

When Petty went to university (1903), it was an unusual work at the time of its publication, as it was one of the first and perhaps the first popular books to describe how women lived on campus.

The book was published in 1912, and the book quickly gained great commercial success.
In 1915, Jane married Glenn McKinney. Everything was going well at first glance until a year later, sadness replaced happiness. On June 10, 1916, she entered the hospital and gave birth to a daughter.

Her initial condition looked good, but after her initial recovery, Jane Webster died the next day. After this, the book became one of the most famous novels in the world.

This fame was partly related to film adaptations, series, plays or cartoons. In Iran, its anime (Japanese anime) is more popular with the people than its novel.
