Jo, the second-born, wants nothing more than to be a writer. Beth is a sweet girl who loves music and always brings joy to others. The youngest daughter, Amy, dreams of being an artist. After reading Little Women, I have a feeling of warmth and kindness from the family.

I've wanted it so long," said Jo. "I planned to spend mine on new music," said Beth. "I shall get a nice box of drawing pencils. I really need them," said Amy. "Mother didn't say anything about our money, but she does wish us to get something. Let's each buy what we need. I'm sure we work hard enough to make it," cried Jo. |
