  The Marches were a happy family.Poverty, hard work, and even the fact that Father March was away with the Union armies could not down the spirits of Meg, Jo, Amy, and Marmee, as the March girls called their mother.

  The March sisters tried to be good but had their share of faults.Pretty Meg was often displeased with the schoolchildren she taught; boyish Jo was easy to become angry; golden-haired schoolgirl Amy liked to show up; but Beth, who kept the house, was loving and gentle always.

  The happy days passed and darkness came when a telegram arrived for Mrs.March.“Your husband is very ill, ” it said, “come at once.” The girl tried to be brave when their mother left for the front.They waited and prayed.Little Beth got scarlet fever(猩紅熱)when she was taking care of the sick neighbor.She became very ill but began to recover by the time Marmee was back.When Father came home from the front and at that joyful Christmas dinner they were once more all together.

  Three years later the March girls had grown into young womanhood.Meg became Mrs.Brooke, and after a few family troubles got used to her new state happily.Jo had found pleasure in her literary efforts.Amy had grown into a young lady with a talent for design and an even greater one for society.But Beth had never fully regained her health, and her family watched her with love and anxiety.

  Amy was asked to go and stay in Europe with a relative of the Marches.Jo went to New York and became successful in her writing and had the satisfaction of seeing her work published there.But at home the bitterest blow was yet to fall.Beth had known for some time that she couldn’t live much longer to be with the family and in the spring time she died.

  News came from Europe that Amy and Laurie, the grandson of a wealthy neighbor, had planned to be married soon.Now Jo became ever more successful in her writing and got married to Professor Bhaer and soon afterwards founded a school for boys.

  And so the little women had grown up and lived happily with their children, enjoying the harvest of love and goodness that they had devoted all their lives to.
