Meg, Jo, Beth & Amy March. Many Woofers, when we were young pups, grew up with these characters in Louisa May Alcott's novel "Little Women"! They were like our friends and neighbors.
Do you identify with one or more of the characters? Why?
Today some of us relate more closely to the author herself. She often said she modeled Jo after her own personality. Learning that Alcott was an advocate for women's suffrage and was actually the first woman to register to vote in a school board election in Concord, Massachutes, that's not too hard to believe!
So what would Louisa think of women in this the 21st Century? What would you tell her, or one of the March women, if you could?
