Contents include: "Grandma's Story", "Tabby's Table-cloth", "Eli's Education", "Onawandah", "Little Things", "The Banner of Beaumanoir", "Jerseys; or, the Girl's Ghost", "The Little House in the Garden", "Daisy's Jewel-box, and How She filled it", "Corny's Catamount", "The Cooking-Class", and "The Hare and the Tortoise". Louisa May Alcott (1832 - 1888) was an American short story writer, novelist, and poet most famous for writing the novel "Little Women", as well as its sequels "Little Men" and "Jo's Boys". She grew up in New England and became associated with numerous notable intellectuals of her time, including Nathaniel Hawthorne, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and Henry David Thoreau. Other notable works by this author include: "An Old-Fashioned Girl" (1886), "Eight Cousins" (1869), and "A Long Fatal Love Chase" (1875). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork. |
