An Old-Fashioned Girl by Louisa Alcott
Polly never questioned the way she was, until she went to visit her city cousins, the wealthy Shaw family. Years later, she is living in the city, supporting herself by giving music lessons. When she learns that the Shaws are facing poverty, she is more than eager to help, but what can she do?
Louisa May Alcott (1832-88) was brought up in Pennsylvania, USA. She turned to writing in order to supplement the family income and had many short stories published in magazines and newspapers. She was reluctant to write a children's book but then realized that in herself and her three sisters she had the perfect models. The result was Little Women (1868) which became the earliest American children's novel to become a classic.
