Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

Meg is sweet-tempered. Jo is smart. Beth, shy. And Amy - sassy, stubborn and ambitious.

Together they're the March sisters. Even though money is short, times are tough and their father is away at war, their infectious sense of fun sweeps everyone up in their adventures - including Laurie, the boy next door. A transatlantic feminist classic, Little Women celebrates the lives and choices of women in a world not designed to accommodate their dreams.
