358K0

The 150th anniversary commemorative edition of the classic fully translated version of "Little Women" is a must-read for young girls. It is a long-lasting heart-warming female classic about personal dignity, self-reliance and self-discipline, and awakens women's awareness of self-independence. "Little Women" is set against the backdrop of the American Civil War in the mid-19th century, and vividly describes the author's personal experience of family life: his father joined the Northern Army on an expedition, and the four sisters, accompanied by their loving mother, lived a poor but fun life at home. Although full of fantasy, in real life, they have been relying on their own efforts to solve various difficulties in life. The eldest daughter Meg is born with a love of beauty and is full of longing for love; the second daughter Jo is independent and determined to become a writer; the third daughter Beth is a traditional good girl, weak and lovable; the youngest daughter Amy loves painting. The story follows these four women as they grow from girls to young women, telling their love experiences and their respective pursuits of different ideals and destinations.
