       reading. 
520    The Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer illuminates the 
       world of Little Women and its author. Since its 
       publication in 1868-69, Little Women, perhaps America's 
       most beloved children's classic, has been handed down from
       mother to daughter for generations. It has been translated
       into more than fifty languages and inspired six films, 
       four television shows, a Broadway musical, an opera, and a
       web series. This lavish four-color edition features over 
       220 curated illustrations, including stills from the films,
       art by Norman Rockwell, and iconic children's-book 
       illustrations. Renowned Alcott scholar John Matteson 
       brings his expertise to the book, to the March family it 
       creates, and to the Alcott family who inspired it all. 
       Through numerous photographs taken in the Alcott family 
       home expressly for this edition--elder daughter Anna's 
       wedding dress, the Alcott sisters' theater costumes, 
       sister May's art, and Abba Alcott's recipe book--readers 
       discover the extraordinary links between the real and the 
       fictional family. Matteson's annotations evoke the once-
       used objects and culture of a distant but still-relevant 
       time, situating Alcott's work within the world of art, 
       music and literature that defined and inspired her. The 
       book's rich commentaries bring us back in touch with the 
       books Alcott read, the people she knew, the foods she ate.
       The introductory essays examine the book's pivotal place 
       in children's literature and tell the captivating story of
       Alcott herself.--Adapted from book jacket.
