It was the tale of an orphan girl — real name Margery Meanwell — so poor she had only one shoe, but so pure of heart and morally upright she won the admiration of everyone around her. Published by John Newbery, who also gave us "The Renowned History of Giles Gingerbread," "The History of Little Goody Two-Shoes" was an instant hit. To this day, no one is certain who wrote it.
