Classics 

Just before the publication of "Little Women" in 1868, Louisa May Alcott commented that her book was "not a bit sensational, but simple and true, for we really lived mot of it."

The story of the four March sisters can be lived and relived in this beautiful new edition of an American Classic. There's Meg, the generous, good-hearted eldest, yearning for a more comfortable life; Jo, the independent Heroine, who is devoted to her dream of becoming a writer; Beth, the shy, sweet-tempered one, who loves nothing more than to do good for others; and pretty Amy, who won't be content till her nose turns up instead of down.

Readers will sigh, laugh, shed tears, and rejoice with the March sisters as they change from being young girls to being young women.

Newly commissioned illustrations by Michael Hague, an introduction by Naomi Lewis, and a format just the right size for young hands make this the edition of choice for a new generation of readers.
