HOW IT WAS LOSTHOW IT WAS FOUNDDEBBY'S DEBUTTHE BROTHERSNELLY'S HOSPITALA Modern Cinderella is a collection of four short stories by Louisa May Alcott, the author of Little Women. Like her more famous novels, Alcott tells stories of young women interacting with people and events from the late 1800s. A great addition to the Alcott library of stories.
In a true Alcott fashion, these stories instruct as well as entertain in all their charm and naivity you would expect from the author. A great book to relax your soul a bit.
Absolutely beautiful book, it showed the innocence many of us no longer see in modern books. Though I am still quite young, the characters' mature appearances were very much to my taste. The stories were simple in a quick read, but one realizes that these shorts had a much greater meaning once pondered upon. There was humor in the right areas and somber moments in others. All in all, a very enjoyable read, I would recommend this to anyone who loves a little bit of history and literature mixed into one.
