<b>Little Women</b> follows the March <b>sisters</b> as they grow up. Each chapter is relatively short and usually features a moral lesson without being preachy.<br /><br /><b>Louisa May Alcott </b>wrote Little Women in 1868. It centers on the 4 young March sisters: <b>Meg</b>, <b>Jo</b>, <b>Amy</b>, and <b>Beth</b>. Each of the sisters has a distinct personality. Meg is the oldest, Jo is the writer and tomboy, Amy is the vain one, and Beth is a saint. The sisters are guided by their mother, Marmee, and they strike up a friendship with the next-door neighbor boy, Laurie.
