Notes

Description
Follow the adventures of the four endearing March sisters as they journey into young womanhood. There's Meg, at sixteen the oldest, who longs for a rich life full of beautiful things and free from materail want. Next comes Jo, the willful and headstrong tomboy, who plans to become a writer and who retires to the attic when "genius burns." Gentle, music-loving Beth, "the pet of the family," is delicate and sweet. And fashionable Amy, the youngest of the four, is artistic, beautiful, spoiled, and in a hurry to grow up. Set in New England during the Civil War, this warm story of a loving family, the ties they share, and the adversities they oversome is as fresh and relevant today as when it was written.
