Poor Rose Campbell! Tired and ill, she has come to live at "The Aunt-Hill" after the death of her beloved father. Six aunts fussing and fretting over her are bad enough, but what is a quiet thirteen-year-old girl to do with seven boisterous boy cousins? And with a guardian uncle who has the strangest ideas about how to raise a young girl? Louisa May Alcott's realistic and spirited writing has captivated readers for generations. She lived with the real Little Women in Concord, Massachusetts. The author of mysteries, romances, and novels, she traveled widely and died in Boston in 1888.
