This book is part of the "Essentials of Literature" collection. The March sisters, from Louisa May Alcott's popular and enduring romance, have captivated generations of readers, young and old, men and women. The story focuses on the lives of four girls, from Beth and Amy's adolescence to the beginning of Meg and Jo's adult lives. Each one is different, but with their father away in the civil war and their mother working to support the family, they must support each other. Whether staging a play, forming a secret society, or celebrating Christmas, they always wonder if their father will return home safe and sound. Each girl has an imaginary "castle" that she hopes to reach, but in the end, they all learn that nothing brings more happiness than a close and loving family.
Louisa May Alcott was an American novelist, short story writer, and poet best known for writing the novel Little Women (1868) and its sequels Good Wives (1869), Little Men (1871), and Jo's Boys (1886). Raised in New England by her transcendentalist parents, Abigail May and Amos Bronson Alcott, she grew up among many well-known intellectuals of the day, including Margaret Fuller, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Henry David Thoreau. Encouraged by her family, Alcott began writing from an early age.
