Little Women. Dieser Artikel ist nicht verfügbar.Little Women

There are four March sisters: oldest-sister Meg, who just wants to be "normal" and go to parties, hot-tempered and creative Jo, who wants desperately to be a writer, shy and musical Beth, who cares for the weakest in society, and last-but certainly not least-artistic Amy, who is sick of being treated like the baby and wishes that she was rich.

Each sister-along with Laurie, the boy next door-faces challenges and adventures, unexpected grief, and delighted joy as they journey through years filled with holiday celebrations, near-death experiences, world travel, first loves, and so much more. Devoted to their parents, they must decide if their parents' idealistic ways are worth following into adulthood.

After reading Little Women in middle school, STEPHANIE EBERT decided to be a writer like Jo March. Her first books were written while sitting in an old avocado tree and were given out every year as Christmas presents to her three siblings. She grew up between South Africa and the USA. Stephanie studied English Literature and Sociology in Indiana, hiked 500 miles in Spain, and spent four years living in a tiny house on wheels with her husband and two children in South Africa. She and her family are now fixing up an old farm house called Windhover in a part of South Africa that looks more like Middle Earth than The Lion King (although there are no hobbits-just monkeys that steal their avocados).
