This book show four example of lady's life. March sisters, Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy, have different personalities and try to be happy.
I think I'm like Jo. She loving reading and writing story and play. But she is not outgoing. So people said Jo is not interesting at all. I can understand her feeling!
March sisters are very nice girls. I like them. But, especially, I want Jo to be happy because she is my favorite girl. ( )

This book is a story about four sisters . Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy March.
At first , they lead a happy life together , but then they lived apart.
Meg married a clever young man.
Amy went to and stay London.
Jo went to NewYork.
Beth stayed home.
And they spent different life.

I like Jo very much. She was unsociable, but very kind and loved her family.
She was often compared with Amy.
Amy is very pretty girl. Everyone loved her. She was very kind girl , too.
But I don't like her because she was so innocent that she couldn't understand Jo's feeling.

When Amy became happy, I thought Amy's happiness is complex for Jo.
If I had been Jo, I wouldn't have been able to celebrate her.
But Jo was pleased with Amy's happiness regardless of her loneliness.
I was impressed with her tenderness. ( )
