Background

The film was adapted from the novel Laddie: A True Blue Story, which was written by Gene Stratton-Porter in 1913. The novel itself is somewhat autobiographical, as Porter based its setting, characters, and plot on her childhood life. As the youngest child in her farm family, Porter is represented by “Little Sister,” while “Laddie” is based on her favorite older brother, who she called Laddie.
