Little Women Book Review

This book is a masterpiece and I think one of the best books in the entire world.  The book teaches us how to be happy with what we got. The March sisters are happy with their lives. They have the true happiness in their lives because they share literally everything with their family. This book is a periodical drama book. It’s time period was during the civil war in America. The head of the family, ‘Mr. March” joined army. The book represented the family situation during that time. There are four March sisters. They are Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy. Each of them consists of different characteristics. Together they help their mother to overcome their father’s absence and help each other to handle their family works. During this time they also learn how to be theirselves.

The March sisters are some of my most favourite characters of all time. I want to describe their unique characteristics.

1. Meg: Meg is beautiful, fashionable and caring. She cares for her family very much. She is very much respoinsible and protective. The only thing that sometimes disturbs Meg is her obsession with luxury and fashion. Despite that she is always ready to accpet what she has been given.

2. Jo: Jo is damn caring type of girl. She is the heart of the March family. She knows the best of every member of the March family. I personally think that Jo is an icon for the feminist. She loves to read and write. She is very much desperate to hold her family together. Books and family are everything Jo cares about.  She is the kind of girl who wont give up anything easily. She is a strong spirited girl.

3. Beth: Beth is my personal favourite among the March sisters. Beth is the calm and quite one. She has love for music. She loves her family more than anything. She is the most optimistic one. She is shy but whenever she becomes friendly with anyone she would be the best companion to him/her. She is literally ready to give away everything she has for the loved ones.

4. Amy: Amy is the youngest one. She has aspirations for arts and paintings. She is a little bit stubborn like her sister Jo and that is why oftewn they two have little sisters fighting. Amy is very much ambitious to achieve her goal. She is the one who thinks further more than the present. 

However the book gives us many messages about the conditions of the women then. Through Jo March’s character we can learn that girls are not confined within anything. Girls can do anything if they have the real aspirations to that. This book also teaches us that family and the bondage between the family members are what worth living for.  This is the kind of book which everyone should read atleast once in his/her life.
