Four sisters, one small house in Massachusetts, and a father away at war. Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy March grow up poor in money and rich in everything else in Louisa May Alcott's beloved novel, the rare classic that feels like being welcomed into someone's home. Jo, who would rather write than be ladylike, has been inspiring readers for over 150 years.
