Louisa May Alcott
Nothing seemed impossible in the beginning.
Louisa May Alcott
The moment Aunt March took her nap, or was busy with company, Jo hurried to this quiet place, and curling herself up in the easy chair, devoured poetry, romance, history, travels, and pictures like a regular bookworm.
Louisa May Alcott
