About this ebook

"Christmas won't be Christmas without any presents," grumbled Jo, lying on the rug. So begins one of the best-loved children’s classics, Little Women. Coming of age in the North during the Civil War, the March sisters—Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy—experience great joy and tragic loss while becoming the true little women of the title. The novel is resonant with themes of friendship, feminism, and building strong character, which are explored through the sisters’ relationships with their family, in particular their beloved Marmee, their friends, and their neighbours.

Ratings and reviews

Con un inglés básico para empezar a leer en este idioma. La historia está llena de drama que te mantiene entretenido.

A masterpiece in prose simple enough to be understood by any young adult in today's world. I have read this book many times, and it means a great deal to me.

I found the characters well thought of, and true to their nature. It's a bit preaching, religious and morally. But considering it's time written, it makes sense, so as long as you can go past that, it's a good read.
