Bookroo's summary

In Civil War-era New England, the March sisters—Meg, Beth, Amy, and spirited Jo—face the challenges of growing up. As they encounter joy, heartbreak, and unexpected turns, their bond is tested. Will they find their place in a changing world, or will the trials of life pull them apart? Discover the warmth and resilience of sisterhood in this timeless tale.

From the publisher

Following Sterlings spectacularly successful launch of its childrens classic novels (240,000 books in print to date), comes a dazzling new series: Classic Starts. The stories are abridged; the quality is complete. Classic Starts treats the worlds beloved tales (and children) with the respect they deserve–all at an incomparable price. Louisa May Alcotts classic novel, set during the Civil War, has always captivated even the most reluctant readers. Little girls, especially, love following the adventures of the four March sisters–Meg, Beth, Amy, and most of all, the tomboy Jo–as they experience the joys and disappointments, tragedies and triumphs, of growing up. This simpler version captures all the charm and warmth of the original.
