Resumen del Editor

Little Women is the classic story of the March family, which consists of Mr. and Mrs. March and their four girls–Practical yet fashion conscious Meg, who longs for the nice things they used to have. Rambunctious book worm, Jo, who wants to become a writer and wishes she were born a boy. Shy and quiet, homeloving Beth, who loves to play the piano and play with her kitties. Finally, the youngest, artistic Amy, who longs for an aristocratic nose!

The story takes place during the American Civil War, and begins with Mr. March away from home as a chaplain to the Union army, while his wife and daughters remain at home to work and wait for his safe return. This book follows their joys and sorrows and scrapes along the path to the girl’s becoming grown up “little women”.

Many of the scrapes they get into include Laurie–their harum scarum next door neighbor, who becomes their adopted brother. The two families, the Marches and the Laurences, strike up a lasting friendship, despite their differences in material possessions

Not unpleasant

Generally, I like the book much better than the movie. Not so much in this case. The readers did ok, and this was the first time that I had read this author. If she is a favorite for someone, then I would say that they may be disappointed by some of the readers.
