A Merry Christmas
An Excerpt from Little Women

A Merry Christmas: An Excerpt from Little Women is the famous Christmas scene (Chapter Two) from the immortal Louisa May Alcott novel, Little Women.

Newly impoverished after father's financial loss, the sisters work outside the home for money to support the family, and rediscover the true meaning of Christmas in the process.
