Talented Voice Artist

It's a classic for a reason. Very talented voice artist performs this version. Highly recommend.

Can’t Beat the Classics!!!!

The setting is archaic. The customs are from another era. However, the story has much to inform the alert reader.

Not for 8th grade boys

It met my very low expectations for a book based in the civil war about girls growing up. There is much romance which I don't care for.

Awosome but sad

I love it but when Beth dies the story turns around I found that the story just was sad😔😥

This amazing book

This book is wonder actually the best book I have ever listened to. Every girl so different yet their relationship is so close. Heart wrenching yet so warming , it makes you want dance sometimes and cry at others. Louisa May Alcott did a suburb job in my opinion. This book is a must read

A. MAZ. ING.

GREAT book! Beautifully written and great plot. Has many life lessons and is hilarious! I would recommend this book to anyone! I think you could enjoy this book at age 7 just as well as you would at age 80! Took me a while to finish it but left me with one thing in my head: THAT WAS AMAZING!!!!

Great story, little kids might find it a little over their heads though. I'd say that 9 or 10 would be a good age. But it just depends on the kid to be honest! :D

I loved hearing the adventures of Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy! Totally want the next book!!! And can I just say that Victoria Mcgee's narration was awesome? Cause it was! All the voices were amazing and I think that it is totally worth it to get this book!

A very long sermon.

The characters are not believable. Too perfect and too good. I enjoyed it more when I was 10.

Journeying into the past..

What did you love best about Little Women?

I love this book more than some others as this is the book I used to read A LOT during my early teens, even though I didn't understand some things as clearly as I do now. I remember making warm bread and tea to read this book, and both of these are linked in my mind so much that every time I pick up this book I yearn for a cup of warmth that I felt in the past. The narrator has a motherly voice, and you get a warm feeling listening to the book in her voice.

What did you like best about this story?

The best is the links it has got with the history of mankind, how good things used to be in the past, and hope that I can bring up my daughters as well as the ones in this book.

Which character – as performed by Victoria Mcgee – was your favorite?

Her narration was superb overall. The manly voice doesn't suit her when she reads out their dialogues though.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

None at all.

Any additional comments?

I can listen to this book again and again! And I will!

Lovely classic!
