Daddy Long-Legs an epistolary novel by the American writer Jean Webster, which has been translated into Persian several times, is marketed again with a new Persian translation.
IBNA: Daddy Long-Legs is a 1912 epistolary novel by the American writer Jean Webster. It follows the protagonist, a young girl named Jerusha "Judy" Abbott, through her college years. She writes the letters to her benefactor, a rich man whom she has never seen. 

The book has been translated into Persian several times. The first Persian translation was released some 50 years ago by Safi Alishah publications. During the next years, it was marketed by publications including Ofogh, Qadyani, Dabir, Mahtab and Zarrin. 

The new transaction is done by Mani Hashemian and Golnaz Navidian. 

The book is about Judy Abbott, a lively young girl growing up in an orphanage. Her dreams of college seem in vain until the unknown benefactor offers to pay for her tuition. The only requirements are that she must write to him every month, and that she can never know who he is. 

The new Persian translation is to be released in 138 pages. 

Jean Webster (pseudonym for Alice Jane Chandler Webster, July 24, 1876 – June 11, 1916) was an American writer and author of many books including Daddy-Long-Legs and Dear Enemy.
