Little Women is a story that traces the lives of four sisters— gentle and agreeable Meg, straightforward and outspoken Joe, quiet and shy Beth, and dramatic and manipulative Amy. The novel shows the sisters’ life in Civil War New England and follows them as each of them matures and chooses her own life path. Originally created as a children’s novel, Little Women is a story that would be equally as interesting to an adult reader, as it is revolved around such themes as different versions of womanhood and a woman’s place in society. Now even more entertaining in this exclusive illustrated edition.Notable works: Little Women, Good Wives, Little Men, Jo's Boys, Eight Cousins
