Jo March isn’t your typical Victorian lady — she’s bold, headstrong and determined to become a great American novelist. As she and her sisters, Meg, Beth and Amy, come of age during the Civil War, they strive to be brave, intelligent and imaginative young women, each balancing their dreams with society’s expectations. In a world shaped by conflict, class and personal hardship, Jo tells their story — the story of four dreamers growing into little women.

"In classic Kate Hamill fashion, a literary masterpiece is updated and refreshed for the modern age, with focus given to the strong, seldom well-behaved women who make history. Bursting with humor and emotional intelligence, this Little Women speaks across centuries and generations." ~Concord Theatricals
