Pollyanna Society
Many children's clubs have badges for their members, such as the Scouts and Guides. Other club badges are based on magazines, films or television programmes like Blue Peter.
This badge was made for children who liked reading Eleanor H Porter's book 'Pollyanna' so much that they joined the Pollyanna Society and tried to be like their heroine. Pollyanna was known for playing a 'glad game', where she always saw the bright side in everything.
