Most helpful customer reviews on Amazon. Little Women is an old classic that was simply begging to be re-read. I think I started the book so many times when I was in elementary school that I had actually memorized the opening chapter. Every word rang as familiar to my eyes and heart as a forgotten Christmas Carol. But, but I don't remember ever finishing the book -- until this time. It's written in an old-fashioned style, and a little harder to follow than some more modern literature, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Even the rhythm of the words takes you back to a sweeter simpler time which was in reality a very harsh time in American history.

Aside from their father being away from home during the first part of the book the war is not a main topic.

It's all about the relationships between these sisters, their mother, their neighbor and later their budding romances. Take your time with this one. Read it slowly and savor. However it's not in print any longer so I paid a bit more to buy a good used condition of the book. I'm in the process of reading it with my daughter and I realize it ends when Meg gets engaged. Which is really only half the book, leaving out Beth's death, Laurie and Amy, etc. Just FYI, since that probably explains why it is no longer in print and I would have purchase a different edition had I known that.

This is not the complete book. This is only the first part. Super annoying since I did not see it anywhere in the description. The book it self is wonder but this copy is a waste of your money. This story opened my eyes as a very young girl to the awe and magic of books.

For the first time, I realised what it was like to become immersed in the characters of a novel and enchanted with the loves and lives of Meg, Jo, Beth, Amy and of course, Laurie.

As I was transported back to New England during the Civil War era, this book ignited a love of historical fiction that I have to this day at the old age of As a child with no sisters, I read with wonder the day to day relationship between the sisters, leaving me envious and longing for that kind of closeness. When I first read this book, my youngest brother was very ill and died soon after, I felt such sorrow and empathy for frail, gentle Beth.

I recommend this classic novel to readers of all ages. This is for the Kindle Edition: The story needs no review, but the illustrations can be a problem. They work fine on the Kindle app on my ipad.

Please try again later. It is one of the most beautiful books I own. Anna Bond's illustrations are amazing. The classic does not need to be reviewed. It is an unabridged version of the classic. The book had beautiful endpapers and the binding is flexible. I was a bit skeptical about buying this book since I thought maybe it wouldn't suit the liking of an adult.

But I was proved completely wrong since no matter whatever age you are, you will surely enjoy this piece if you like to read! This is one beautiful book which I read slowly over a month savoring each chapter and living the story with the characters which taught me so many things in the simplest way possible!

I would highly recommend every girl even boys! I was scared it would be abridged but its unabridged with pages. Font size is perfect for people who hate reading small print! The Book is in awesome condition! Charming and gripping tales of four March sisters.

The book is 5 star.

If you have not read this , you need to find a copy. It set during war time , it's a story of Sister hood and their growth as compassionate humans. But my rating is the deterioration of the book cover after 5 months please see the pic attached. Obviously its the most beautiful hardcover design i have ever seen. Little Women is Louisa May Alcott's best known work with adorable characters and heart breaking plots.

In this book we come to know about the lives of four March sisters Margaret Meg ,Josephine Jo ,Elizabeth Beth and Amy living with their wise mother while their father is away at war. While growing up each of them faces different moral challenges but overcomes them through the valuable life lessons from their mother. Though the four sisters were very different from each other yet shared a strong bond.

It is a book full of morals and life lessons and is a classic for a reason!

It will always have a special place in our hearts. I am rating it not for the story. As we all know how amazing the story is. But, this rating is for the edition. I did not realise this is just the first part of the book. There was nowhere mentioned in the product description that this is the 1st part and contains 23 chapters only. I am very disappointed.
