Résumé

Daddy-Long-Legs is a 1912 epistolary novel by Jean Webster. It centers on Jerusha “Judy” Abbott, an orphan who is sent to college by a mysterious benefactor she has never met. From her studies and early days adjusting to campus life, Judy writes monthly letters addressed to “Daddy-Long-Legs,” using them to document her gradual growth from institutionalized child to a young educated woman. As she forms friendships, explores college experiences, and nurtures her ambition to become a writer, Judy continues writing while remaining unaware of who is behind the support.
