With their father serving as a chaplain during the Civil War, Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy try to be good for their mother – but it’s not always easy. They get into scrapes with each other and their neighbor Laurie, but their loved ones are always there to help them along the way.
This new edition of a beloved classic is the same in text and now includes illustrations by Marjolein Bastin in the margins and in the white space at the end of chapters. Each chapter of Little Women teaches a lesson to at least one of the sisters and to readers – anything from hard work to hope, forgiveness to pursuing dreams, heartbreak to healing.
The March family and John are white, Laurie is Italian, and Friedrich is German. The mature content rating is for alcohol use, including underage drinking.
