Not a chance. <br /><br />One part I Charlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04233191668885260894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4014696560401110515.post-6043434057933362152008-05-27T10:31:00.000-04:002008-05-27T10:31:00.000-04:00Little Women is the only Alcott title I've ever re...Little Women is the only Alcott title I've ever read.

From the physical description of the characters to the movies take on the action, I kept wanting to squeeze the two into one. Have you read anything else by Alcott?
