Daddy LongLegs is a 1912 novel by an 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 themes of this book reflect upon Webster's interests in social work and women's suffrage. Some scholars have criticized DaddyLongLegs as being an 'antifeminist fairy tale', while others have argued that Judy shows growing independence, including increasing disobedience to her benefactor and his wishes, and indeed succeeds in educating DaddyLongLegs that he cannot control her, and that his socialism needs to move from the academic into real life. Dear Enemy is the sequel to Jean Webster's novel DaddyLongLegs. Dear Enemy shows how Sallie McBride grows from a frivolous socialite to a mature woman and an able executive.
