Little Women









Little Women
Author: Louisa M. Alcott

I am now starting to read Little Women. There are 4 girls Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy. Meg is the oldest 17 years old, she is very beautiful, has ambitions but able to push them away to find her way into love. Jo is sixteen, she is very boyish she is always wishing she was a boy, but she loves to read and write. Beth who is thirteen gives all her love to her family and joy to her music. Amy who is 12 the youngest of the March girls tries to overcome her selfishness and girlishness. Right now it is christmas time. The girls feel as if their mother gives so much to them that they should give something back. All the girls go out and buy there mother beautiful things like slippers, gloves, and perfume. On Christmas day all the girls wake up and each find a book under their beds. The book gave good advice to them that would help them through life. At breakfast time they were going to have a lovely meal but there mother has found a family who are cold and starving. The girls go visit the family and give them their breakfast and make a fire for them. Later they come back home and give their mother the beautiful presents.

I think I will enjoy reading this book. I am not sure what is going to happen in this book but it seems interesting.
