Little women
"
Christmas
won
’
t
be
Christmas
without
any
presents
,
"
grumbled
Jo
,
lying
on
the
rug
.
"
It
’
s
so
dreadful
to
be
poor
!
"
sighed
Meg
,
looking
down
at
her
old
dress
.
"
I
don
’
t
think
it
’
s
fair
for
some
girls
to
have
plenty
of
pretty
things
,
and
other
girls
nothing
at
all
,
"
added
little
Amy
,
with
an
injured
sniff
.
"
We
’
ve
got
Father
and
Mother
,
and
each
other
,
"
said
Beth
contentedly
from
her
corner
.
The
four
young
faces
on
which
the
firelight
shone
brightened
at
the
cheerful
words
,
but
darkened
again
as
Jo
said
sadly
,
"
We
haven
’
t
got
Father
,
and
shall
not
have
him
for
a
long
time
.
"
She
didn
’
t
say
"
perhaps
never
,
"
but
each
silently
added
it
,
thinking
of
Father
far
away
,
where
the
fighting
was
.
Nobody
spoke
for
a
minute
;
then
Meg
said
in
an
altered
tone
,
"
You
know
the
reason
Mother
proposed
not
having
any
presents
this
Christmas
was
because
it
is
going
to
be
a
hard
winter
for
everyone
;
and
she
thinks
we
ought
not
to
spend
money
for
pleasure
,
when
our
men
are
suffering
so
in
the
army
.
We
can
’
t
do
much
,
but
we
can
make
our
little
sacrifices
,
and
ought
to
do
it
gladly
.
But
I
am
afraid
I
don
’
t
,
"
and
Meg
shook
her
head
,
as
she
thought
regretfully
of
all
the
pretty
things
she
wanted
.
"
But
I
don
’
t
think
the
little
we
should
spend
would
do
any
good
.
We
’
ve
each
got
a
dollar
,
and
the
army
wouldn
’
t
be
much
helped
by
our
giving
that
.
I
agree
not
to
expect
anything
from
Mother
or
you
,
but
I
do
want
to
buy
Undine
and
Sintran
for
myself
.
I
’
ve
wanted
it
so
long
,
"
said
Jo
,
who
was
a
bookworm
.
"
I
planned
to
spend
mine
in
new
music
,
"
said
Beth
,
with
a
little
sigh
,
which
no
one
heard
but
the
hearth
brush
and
kettle
-
holder
.
"
I
shall
get
a
nice
box
of
Faber
’
s
drawing
pencils
;
I
really
need
them
,
"
said
Amy
decidedly
.
"
Mother
didn
’
t
say
anything
about
our
money
,
and
she
won
’
t
wish
us
to
give
up
everything
.
Let
’
s
each
buy
what
we
want
,
and
have
a
little
fun
;
I
’
m
sure
we
work
hard
enough
to
earn
it
,
"
cried
Jo
,
examining
the
heels
of
her
shoes
in
a
gentlemanly
manner
.
