1 person thinks you'd like this because...
add rec"Little Women" and "Little Princess Sara" both tell the stories of young girls who Life obliges to grow up fast and show their real strength of character in order to face the hard times.
The stories take place in the same social background of the 19th century. As a matter of fact, both anime are very precise adaptations of the novels "Little Women" (1868) by Louisa May Alcott and "A Little Princess" (1888) by Frances Hodgson Burnett.
Btw, if I may, I also strongly recommend the books, although the anime are brilliantly adapted :)
