So good! I love the dialogue you include, in which Martha shines. I was enchanted by A Little Princess as a child and loved her nobility in poverty—and the transformation of her attic!
Bravo. Another insightful piece and great review of a great book. Title hits the nail on the head too. I'm glad someone is doing this kind of thoughtful analysis. These books are classics because they are undergirded by universal values and universal truths. Yes, there is such a thing.

Read this book several times as a child and there have been a few good film adaptations too, a deserved classic.
