Meet the March Sisters:

· Meg is the eldest and on the brink of love.
· Then there’s tomboy Jo who longs to be a writer.
· Sweet-natured Beth always puts others first
· Finally there’s Amy, the youngest and most precocious.

Even though money is short, times are tough and their father is away at war, their infectious sense of fun sweeps everyone up in their adventures – including Laurie, the boy next door.

And through sisterly squabbles and tragic losses, the sisters discover that growing up is sometimes very hard to do.
