Items related to The Little Women Letters
When the great-great-granddaughter of Josephine March finds a batch of letters, the words of the Little Women shed a light on a new generation of sisters. The Atwaters are a loving family and Fee's three daughters, Emma, Lulu and Sophie, couldn't be less alike. Emma is planning her wedding, Sophie is an up-and-coming actress, and Lulu - the clever one - is stuck in a series of dead-end jobs. But when she gets her hands on Grandma Jo's letters, gathering dust in the attic, everything seems to change and different worlds begin to open up. And even though dark family secrets emerge, Jo's words offer comfort and guidance across the centuries. Sometimes family is all that matters. And sisters are the closest friends you can find.
