Her infectious spirit gradually transforms the lives of the townspeople, helping them see the brighter side of life and encouraging them to embrace joy. Through her unwavering optimism, Pollyanna teaches others that happiness can be found in even the darkest times. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
