Reviews for Papa's Favorite
rebecca-in-blue chapter 1 . 3/7
I like that this gives a little depth and reason to Miss Minchin's meanness, but I also wish it weren't such an obvious case of favorite and un-favorite. I also find it a little hard to believe that Amelia made enough of a mess on the porch that it requires repainting.

Sad.

Her father was a jerk

This is fantastic. It's very short, but you manage to show the reader an entire childhood through just this one anecdote. I love the poignant ending. I've always thought it was very well done how the movie shows Miss Minchin's one moment of weakness when Sara asks if her father every told her she was a princess but leaves the audience to speculate about the details. This fits perfectly with her reaction to Sara's question. Awesome job!
Drifting One chapter 1 . 2/3/2010
That is sad.

It's very simple. You were able to show a lifetime of hurt in a relatively few words.

A great story. Very good.
Sophia Anya Lee chapter 1 . 10/3/2008
This is so sad, I've always wondered why Miss Michin wipes of a tear after Sarh askes her that ... you should elaborate this..

Cheers!

Good show! :) I really like the idea, the turning back to Miss Minchin's life; exploring what went on that made her so bitter. "Didn't your father ever tell you that? DIDN'T HE?" I always imagined something like this. Great work. :D

Beautifully written...although a bit abrupt for the ending. I think you could've showed that Papa loved Amelia more than Maria...it didn't really come through to the end. Also, I think you could've elaborated more on Maria's feelings at the end. Her response would probably be typical (sad, left out, etc.) but I think it would've helped the piece to flow more.

Other than that, nice work.
Miss Amelia chapter 1 . 12/5/2005
That's so sad...I can just picture her as a young child...I'm playing Miss Amelia in a play, and now I can put in the concept of WHY Miss Minchin would be so bitter. Thanks~Amy
