Document Summary
The story of aging women from the time they were children to them growing up (and some of them passing away as well) Beth- not going to be so afraid of everyone (scarlet fever) Amy- going to try and be less stuck-up. Jo (who most closely resembles the author, louisa may alcott)- get in touch with her feminine side (becomes a writer and does not marry. There is a duckling who thought he was the ugliest of all of his friends and was teased by others and never got to play with anyone. He decided to leave home and went far away; turned into a baby swan which was why he did not look as cute as a duckling. Notable because the classic roles of a man saving a woman are reversed to promote breaking down gender roles (kai and greda are neither feminized nor masculinized)
