Book Description
This is a series of vignettes by Louisa May Alcott that illustrate the idea by Sir Philip Sidney that "They are never alone that are accompanied with noble thoughts." The reader is introduced to several young women who discover great satisfaction when they do what each can do and still have a renewed desire to be of more assistance while also witnessing the more somber parts of life. In "Pansies" Mrs. Warburton assures others that "hearts don't break if they know where to go for strength." Ruth asks in "Water-lilies" if she can be forgiven her modesty, courage, and faithfulness. Rosamund of "Little Button Rose" declares "you've made my troubles go, can't I make yours?" Finally in "Mountain-Laurel" Becky realizes that she can become a more useful and honored woman by putting the directives of her poetry into her life than by singing for her fame. For the characters of Alcott's Garland, "When everything seemed darkest, good luck came."

Book Description
“Di manakah Cinderella? Ini sepatunya. Sudah saatnya ia memiliki sepasang sepatu baru. Tampaknya sepatu kaca sekarang sudah tidak bisa bertahan lama,” seru seorang pemuda dengan senyum mengejek sambil mengacungkan sebuah sepatu kecil yang lusuh dan rusak di sana-sini. Di luar pesta, Jessie berdiri menunggu kendaraan di sudut jalan, dengan air mata letih dan kesal, serta doa supaya temannya Fanny yang masih berada di pesta dapat menyelamatkan sebelah sepatunya yang menjadi bahan olok-olok sekaligus menyelamatkan rasa malunya sebagai gadis miskin. Sepatu itu adalah sepatu dansa Prancis terakhir miliknya. Dan kini ia harus memupus mimpinya untuk ikut serta menari dalam festival yang akan disaksikan seluruh penduduk Boston. Pikir Jessie, membeli sepatu baru untuk dirinya sendiri tidaklah lebih penting daripada membeli cat lukis untuk Laura, kakak satu-satunya yang cacat dan hanya bisa mengisi waktunya dengan melukis. Bagaimanapun Jessie bukanlah gadis kecil yang mudah menyerah, meski kali ini ia merasa nasibnya sungguh tidak adil, ia percaya bahwa akan selalu ada keajaiban di akhir untuknya dan Laura. Rangkaian Ivy dan Sepatu Dansa adalah salah satu kisah terbaik yang ada di dalam buku ini. masih ada enam kisah lainnya tentang ketulusan hati yang tak kalah inspiratif dan menyentuh.

Book Excerptroses I wore in my breast, and asked if I might take some books or flowers to poor Maria. It was lovely to see her sad face light up and hear her thank me when I went to see her, for she was very lonely without her sister, and discouraged about her place. She did not lose it entirely, but had to work at home, for her lame knee will be a long time in getting well. I begged Mamma and Mrs. Ailingham to speak to Mr. Cotton for her; so she got the mending of the jet and bead work to do, and buttons to cover, and things of that sort. Mary takes them to and fro, and Maria feels so happy not to be idle. We also got stools, for all the other girls in that shop. Mrs. Allingham is so rich and kind she can do anything, and now it's such a comfort to see those tired things resting when off duty that I often go in and enjoy the sight."Anna paused as cries of "Good! good!" interrupted her tale; but she did not add the prettiest part of it, and tell how the faces of the young women behind the counters brightened wheRead More
