"Christmas will not be fun if we don't get new things," said Jo March. "Why can't we have money like other people?" said Meg. She looked down at her old shoes. "Other girls have lots of nice things. We have very little," said Amy. "We have Father and Mother. And we have enough to get by," said Beth. "But Father is not here!" said Jo. "He could be away for a year or more." Mr. March was away helping the Army. The four March girls were getting ready for Christmas. They did not have a lot of money. They did have lots of love. Meg was the oldest. She was pretty with big eyes and soft, red hair. Then there was Jo. She had dark brown hair. Jo liked to make up plays. The girls would act them out. She wished she were a boy, and acted like one. Next came Beth. She had the kindest face. She was always good. Last of the March girls, was Amy. She was as pretty as a picture and thought so, too . The girls heard a noise from outside. Mother was home at last. She had gone to help a woman who could not get up and around. The woman had no food to eat. Mother thought it would be nice to bring Christmas breakfast to the woman.0
