"The novel follows the lives of four sister, Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy, and is based loosely on the family life of Louisa May. Jo March, the novel’s principal character, was modelled after the author herself. In fact, it was common for contemporary fans of the story to write admiring letters to Louisa May Alcott addressing her as “Jo” or “Miss March.” Mrs. March, the legendary mother character in Little Women, is one of the most beloved matriarchs in American literature. “Marmee,” as her four daughters affectionately call her, even has the same nickname as Louisa May Alcott’s real life mother."--
