Book summary

In New England, while their father is away at the Civil War, four sisters grow up with their mother: Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy. The family has little money but plenty of imagination. Jo, the most independent, writes plays and dreams of becoming a writer.

First balls, first loves, quarrels and reconciliations: this warm novel about family and the wish to choose one's own life has been loved for generations. Jo March remains one of the most endearing heroines in literature.

Its lively dialogue and everyday scenes are easy to read in the language you are learning.
