Little Women

by Anna Bond

The March sisters—Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy—navigate poverty, adolescence, and the upheavals of the Civil War in New England. Through their dreams, pranks, illnesses, and courtships, Alcott crafts an intimate portrait of sisterhood and the passage from girlhood to womanhood. Generations of readers have found themselves woven into this beloved family's joys and sorrows.
