Today I welcome Liz Parker back on the show to discuss Louisa May Alcott’s LITTLE WOMEN, as well as books that retell that story and nonfiction books that connect to this timeless classic. We also chat about THE OTHER MARCH SISTERS, a book that re-examines LITTLE WOMEN through the eyes of Jo March’s sisters. Liz wrote Meg’s chapters in the book, while Ally Malinenko and Linda Epstein wrote the Beth and Amy sections. This, as well as Liz's other new book, WITCHES OF HONEYSUCKLE HOUSE, are linked below.
In the episode, Liz mentions "Little Women: The Musical," which you can find more info on here.
I also mention a Youtuber I follow. Her channel is called Under a Tin Roof, and I specifically spoke about her Little Women Breakfast episode. You can enjoy it below, and follow her cozy channel on Youtube and on Instagram.
I created a featured list in my Bookshop of all the books mentioned in the episode, as well as several others, including nonfiction, retellings, children's books, and various covers of the beloved original. You can find that featured book list here.
