Author Discussion: Louisa May Alcott
Louisa May Alcott (1832-1888) was the author of thirteen novels, or fourteen if you count Little Women and Good Wives as two. She also wrote over 200 short stories and novellas for children and adults.
Some of her short stories are historical, including Tabby's Tablecloth, set during the American Revolution, Eli's Education, based on her father's youth, and Little Things, based on her mother's youth.

And in the same series Eve Plumb (Jan from The Brady Bunch) played Beth.
My overall favorite adaptation is the 1994 movie, but I think the 2017 show has the best Meg and the best John, and the 2019 movie has the best grown Amy.
I would love to see an adaptation of Eight Cousins and Rose in Bloom. A decent scriptwriter could make an interesting role for Fun See.
If you're interested in reading Alcott's Gothic works I think Behind a Mask is one of the best. A Long Fatal Love Chase is also great but it's not public domain.
