Have any of you read this? I have a copy from when I was little and a very old copy that I posted a picture of on my site. I don't think I have read it. So I was thinking I would read my Grandma's old copy from 1889. I read my other Children's books that I have when I was little but I don't recall reading this. So Now I will read the big girl copy.

Eight Cousins was my favorite LMA book. Rose in Bloom is the sequel and it is good, too. Her books are so cozy good!

I love Louisa May Alcott and I always loved that book. I think the sequel is called "A Rose in Bloom" Might be time to read those again...

I've read everything by her several times. She's a favorite of mine. I've even been fortunate enough to visit her home where she wrote her wonderful books.

i had a complete set of Louisa May Alcott when I was a young girl and read all of them over and over. They were one of my greatest treasures.
When I moved away to college my mother donated them and I was heartbroken when I found out. I always look in thrift shop and used book stores for replacements .

If you can dream it, and if you are willing to put forth the work and effort, you can have anything you envision.

It is an adorable book! I love it! :) It has a sequel too, but I can't remember the name of it right off hand.
What fun!

People are like stained-glass windows.
They sparkle and shine when the sun is out,
but when the darkness sets in,
their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.

I have it too. We're finishing up the Hobbit soon. I should see if my girls would like me to read this to them.

That's funny, Nancy, I'm reading it right now. I reorganized the library last week and found it. I didn't even know I had it!!! It's no Little Women or Little Men, but it's endearing, just the same.
