 This is the greatest book ever written!!!!:) :> June 29, 2006

I just love this book!!
YOU should READ THIS BOOK
The best book I have ever read June 25, 2006
Little Women is without doubt the very best book I have ever read. I first picked it up about a year ago in a bookstore when |I was bored, which pretty unusual because I can usually always find something to read.
It was the name that caught my eye. I had read a biography of Louisa May Alcott in a Social Studies textbook, and I knew about this book. But I had never read it.
It was a small, thick copy in Scholastic Classics Edition. I opened it and the first sentence got mee hooked, about how tomboyish, bookworm Jo March wishes she had presents for Christmas.
And then, I read on and on. I learned about grownup, sweet Meg, shy and music-loving Beth, and artistic, pretty Amy. '
But of course I had to leave that bookstore. But my very nice aunt bought the book for me.
In that edition the book was 560 pages long, and I finished it in less than three days.
This terrific book of love, laughter, friendship, and family is sure to charm everyone who takes the time and patience to read its thick volume. But, believe me, it's WORTH IT!!!
 Little Women--A Review from a Point of View June 21, 2006

I felt that Little Women was a very moving story. I had tears in my eyes when Mr. March returns from the War. Louisa Mae Alcott was a very talented writer, indeed. I'm sure her story has touched many other hearts just as it has touched mine. Anyone, young or old, should read Little Women. It is a story of unfaltering love for one's family, even though times are hard and the limits of tempers are tested, the March family still shared its love.

I had the great pleasure of reading the book "Little Women," written by Louisa May Alcott, a story of real experiences and new feelings one experiences through the miracles of family and letting life take it's course; to live it to it's fullest. The March family is a true loving family who is as tightly woven as an old pair of blue jeans. In fact, they have as many stories to tell as old jeans that have been worn by so many. The March family had some hard times, but even burning of each others manuscripts can't put holes in their pockets. I believe this story is worth reading, because Louisa May Alcott defines si wekk in words how a family like the Marches can use their abilities for good and to learn a little more about life's true meaning. When I read this book I can see their life like I was a curious on-looker peering from behind a bookcase. I have become friends with these characters, and feel as if I had been a part of their noveled life. I became so engrossed in "Little Women," when it was time for the light to go off I just realized that in fact I was not touring Europe with the Carroll's, I was laying on my old lumpy mattress with sleep nipping expectantly at my eyelids. To be truthful, the books I had been reading, such as "Babysitters Club" or "Vampires Don't Wear Polka Dots" hadn't been keeping me up so late that my light bulb flickered off with a sputter.
There are not any faults in this wonderful story that my peering from behind the shelf could notice. It was as if Alcott wrote about her own real life and saw it from all her family's point of view.
This book may be sad in some parts, but the blue jeans threads held it together. This was so inspirational to me I decided I should be a Beth or Jo. Maybe even a Meg or Amy. This book isn't just entertainment for the young (or even old) person's mind, but it is a lesson written to fit 400 pages. It can teach you about life, I recommend it greatly.
I will not give away the ending, but here is the summary: a dear family holds on to each other through thick and thin, and with their friend's help they still are a family. The family gets smaller then bigger, and the book ends with one sentence, "Oh my girls, however long you may live, I never can wish you a greater happiness than this," and this is where I end.

I read Little Women recently and I would probably reccommend it to anyone that is okay with a sad, romantic book. The main character is Jo, a tomboy growing up in the late 19th century. It is Jo's story as she becomes an adult, and I think it is a great coming-of-age book for both boys and girls. (Girls would probably enjoy it a little more than boys.) Either way, it's a great book and you should read it as soon as you get your hands on it.
