Little Women
About this book
Louisa May Alcott (1832–1888) published more than thirty books in her lifetime, but it was her "girls' story" (written at the request of her publisher), Little Women, that has captured the imagination of millions of readers.
This coming-of-age story spotlights beloved tomboy Jo March (arguably America's first juvenile heroine and a reflection of a young Alcott herself) and Jo's three sisters—Meg, Beth, and Amy—in a heartwarming family drama. Originally published in two parts, in 1868 and 1869, Little Women has never been out of print.
