Answer:

character versus character

Step-by-step explanation:

The text presents a character versus character conflict. This is because Sara (who is a character) has to suffer the consequences caused by the egoism of Miss Minchin (who is another character), who treats Sara in a very bad way because the girl has become poor.

The Little Princess tells the story of Sara Crewe, a wealthy girl who loses everything when she experiences a terrible tragedy. Obliged to work as a maid, to go cold and to hunger, she continues to preserve her nobility, and thus maintains her pride and her generosity.
