description: Louisa May Alcott paints a vivid portrait of New England at the time of the American Civil War in this touching classic. With their loving father away at the front, times are particularly difficult for the four March girls and their mother, left at home. Yet despite the hardships the little women--Meg, Jo, Amy and Beth--never lose faith, remaining ever cheerful with a generosity of spirit to warm even the coldest of hearts.
