- Summary:
- In the 1870s, Louisa May Alcott made friends with five earnest fans of her best-selling Little Women. The young Lukens girls had written to Miss Alcott telling her that they were so inspired by the examples of Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy, that they, too, were launching their own literary publication.
- Soon the Lukens girls received a very special gift--a Christmas story from Miss Alcott about a lonely orphan girl who finds a family to love her. Following its publication, the story stayed in an old magazine until many years later, a reader chanced upon it. Now it's available to Alcott fans once again, released by Honor Books for the very first time as a stand-alone volume.
