Summary
Little Women is recognized as one of the best-loved classic children's stories, transcending the boundaries of time and age, making it as popular with adults as it is with young listeners. The beloved story of the March girls is a classic American feminist novel, reflecting the tension between cultural obligation and artistic and personal freedom.
But which of the four March sisters to love best? For every listener must have their favorite. Independent, tomboyish Jo; delicate, loving Beth; pretty, kind Meg; or precocious and beautiful Amy, the baby of the family?
The charming story of these four "little women" and their wise and patient mother, Marmee, enduring hardships and enjoying adventures in Civil War-era New England was an instant success when first published in 1868 and has been adored for generations.

I loved this book
I really enjoyed this old-fashioned story which seemed to perfectly capture a time long ago. I thought Christina Ricci's narration was excellent.

Gave up after Chapter 4 due to narrator
Couldn't finish the book because of horrendous narration.Christina Ricci read the novel like reading a telephone directory with no inflection of tone,humour or characterisations. In fact I had to replay each chapter as I got to the end not understanding what was going on or what I had just listened to - and I don't think it's a complicated story. I will try again with another narrator as it is a classic novel after all!

Wonderful trip down Memory Lane
Reminder of special moments i read as a child, but also interesting to listen to strong women in a very different age make their mark and I did not appreciate those hurdles in the same way as a young reader some 50 years ago.

Little Women is such a good story
Little Women is a gorgeous story and it’s lovely to listen to it. So vibrant, moving and timeless.
Good performances - only docking a star as sometimes voices do blur into one.
Only thing to tweak would be the dreadful music that sometimes kicks in at the end of chapters. Sounds like someone being mangled if listening at 1.5! 😂

Little woman
Wonderful! Excellent thrilling story, though a little hard to understand for children. Very eventful and interesting. Certainly recommend to children over 10, and for adults it is a heartwarming story to. Read very well, it is also acted so it made it much more interesting. It is much easier to listen to than to read.
Stunning!
