The Sergeant Majorette says

Hear, hear.
I read "The Little Princess" when I was six or so; not only was it 
British, but Victorian. I loved it because it was totally another 
world. Besides, a kid who can read science fiction and deal with 
words in languages that don't exist can certainly read British 
English. We may be Philistines, but we're (mostly) not stupid.
