<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> "First published...in two volumes by Roberts Brothers 1868 and 1869"--Title page verso. <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <b>The perfect holiday read and just in time for the major feature film, a timeless new edition of one of the most beloved novels of all time.</b> <p/><i>Little Women</i> is recognized as one of the best-loved classic children's stories, transcending the boundaries of time and age, making it as popular with adults as it is with young readers. The beloved story of the March girls is a classic American feminist novel, reflecting the tension between cultural obligation and artistic and personal freedom. But which of the four March sisters to love best? For every reader must have their favorite. Independent, tomboyish Jo; delicate, loving Beth; pretty, kind Meg; or precocious and artistic Amy, the baby of the family? The charming story of these four little women and their wise and patient mother Marmee enduring hardships and enjoying adventures in Civil War New England was an instant success when first published in 1868 and has been adored for generations. <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> "An essential American novel, perhaps the essential American novel for girls."--<b>Jane Smiley</b> <p/> "My favorite literary heroine is Jo March. It is hard to overstate what she meant to a small, plain girl called Jo, who had a hot temper and a burning ambition to be a writer."--<b>J.K. Rowling</b> <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> <b>Louisa May Alcott </b>was born in Pennsylvania, in 1832, the second of four daughters.
