Book Description

This volume contains the complete six books, a total of 66 stories, that are part of the series "Aunt Jo's Scrap Bag", by the beloved author of "Little Women", Louisa May Alcott. Some of the books in this volume are extremely rare to find; and although BOOK ONE had the name "Aunt Jo's Scrap Bag", it then became the name of the series of six books. The books go from personal accounts (for example, how she described all her favorite boys and especially gave insight into how she created the character Laurie in volume one), to children's fantasies, or beautiful accounts with lovely characters that contain profound lessons in life and good will.
