Susan Beth Pfeffer really has a handle on the "little women." I remember I loved this book as a kid, and I absolutely ate it up. Jo has always been my favorite little woman, so I always enjoyed this short jaunt with my favorite character. This is a short, easy read that young girls will enjoy. Reading this now, I focused mainly on whether I thought Pfeffer stayed true to the characters, and I really felt that she did. Jo's "sacrifice" for her family is something that is so typically Jo, and I th...
I think Jo might be my spirit animal. But she lasted far longer with Aunt March than I would have. Sewing samplers is there worst!! Give me a TV anyday! Okay, this is the 1800s... Give me a quilt! I love quilting. But I also love digging in the dirt of a garden, playing games that involve running, and in general being a tomboy. Jo is the best. I'm sad she heard that conversation and came up with her plan.
I loved these little additions to 'Little Women' as a girl!! Our library had almost all of them. It's fun reading this again years later!! I think these would be great additional reading for girls that like the abridged edition of Little Women for younger readers.
One of my favourite reads in primary. Jo was my favourite too.
Olivia read this and rated it 4 stars.
I remember reading this when I was a teenager. It is one of my favorite books that I read growing up. I also read Meg's Story but I think I liked Jo's a little more.
Jo's Story by Susan Beth PfefferThis is also a very interesting book. Jo is a tomboy and hates to be proper. She overhears her wealthy aunt asking her mother if she wants to adopt one of her children so the other kids can have a better life. Jo decides to sacrifice herself for her sisters. Now Jo have to convince that she is proper enough, but it may be to hard for the tomboy that she is.I would recommend this book to anyone who likes stories of 10 year old girls and their life.
cool
A story is given for each of the March sisters at age 10. These are great and go well with Little Women...perfect for LW fans who want more. I wish I had known about these when I was little!
No. 1: The girl on the front is too elagant for Jo to ever be. No. 2 horrid adaption. dislike. Stick to the classic.
I absoulutley love it. Susan Beth Pfeffer did a great job. I'm on to Meg 's Story and Beth's story and Amy's Story. I LOVE it.
Nice side story to the series. Think I will read the others too!
I loved these when I was in 4th/5th grade - a story is given for each of the March sisters at age 10. Jo was my favorite, of course :)
This was lying around the house, so I decided to read it. My 10-year-old daughter had enjoyed it, so I wanted to see what it was about.This is a very nice little book, and a quick read. The story is well developed and just complex enough in its 71 pages to be interesting. Good values, good plot. I liked it.
Volt 4 lanytestvér Jo (Josephine),Amy Beth és Meg.Kolcson akkarta kérni egy Oliver Twist konyvet ,de csak akkor ha lanyosan viselkedik ,de nem sikerult neki.Nem kapta meg .Az nagy gyerekeknek volt.(a konyv)
Author clearly doesn't know Jo very well. BLECH.
This tells the story of Jo, was kinda fun to readAnd yes, I know this is not written by Louis May Alcott, But it is related to her work, so I put it on this shelf.
So boring. And I failed the AR test in second grade.
Jo's my style. She's got a good heart, but can totally be a brat sometimes.
