Publisher's Synopsis
Louisa May Alcott can't believe it-her mother is leaving for the summer to earn money for the family and Louisa is to be in charge of the household. How will she find the time to write her stories, much less have any adventures of her own? But before long, Louisa finds herself juggling her temperamental father, a mysterious murder, a fugitive seeking refuge along the Underground Railroad and blossoming love. Intertwining fact, fiction and quotes from Little Women, Michaela MacColl has crafted another plucky heroine whose story will keep readers turning pages until the very end.
