Daddy-Long-Legs is a famous epistolary novel by the American writer Jean Webster. It is a heartwarming and delightful tale that invites readers into the world of an orphan named Jerusha Abbott, who affectionately calls herself Judy. The novel unfolds through a series of letters that Judy writes to her mysterious benefactor, whom she nicknames Daddy-Long-Legs. An unknown benefactor who believes she can become a writer has financed her college education. Judy is required to send him a letter every month, but he never gets back to her. Judy discovers that he is a tall, long-legged man by catching a glimpse of his shadow from behind, and she ends up calling him Daddy-Long-Legs

Jean Webster

Jean Webster was the pen name of Alice Jane Chandler Webster an American author whose books include Daddy-Long-Legs and Dear Enemy. Her best-known books feature lively and likeable young female protagonists who come of age intellectually, morally, and socially, but with enough humour, snappy dialogue, and gently biting social commentary to make her books palatable and enjoyable to contemporary readers. Daddy-Long-Legs was not only a successful piece of fiction but also a stimulus to reform the institutional treatment of orphans. The novel has also been adapted into a musical comedies, a film, and a television series. It received favourable responses and is still regarded as successful.
