Eight Cousins by Louisa M Alcott was originally a serial for young people and tells of a young orphan who is sent to live with her aunts, uncle and cousins.
"'She had been with them only a week, and, though the dear old ladies had tried their best to make her happy, they had not succeeded very well, for she was unlike any child they had ever seen, and they felt very much as if they had the care of a low-spirited butterfly." (Louisa M Alcott).
