I read this book when I was in third grade and loved it! I had read Little Women and Little Men. .My granddaughter and I went to see a production of Little Women. I have a set of Louisa May Alcott books that were my mother's and thought the biography would be a fitting part. Can't wait for my granddaughter to read all of the books!''
