novel little women ch 4 summary
Answers
Answer:
With the festivities over, the girls find it difficult to continue with their jobs. Meg, a babysitter, does not
want to look after the King’ children and Jo is in no mood to look after Aunt March as she makes Jo read
boring books aloud. Jo likes Aunt March even though she is very strict; both the women have common
traits – both are stubborn and determined. Jo likes the book collection Uncle March left behind and
feels that it makes up for having to read boring books to Aunt March. Beth, the most introvert of March
sisters, stays at home and does housework dutifully. She takes great care of her doll collection, most of
which is damaged in some way. Little Amy goes to school and is not happy with her looks, particularly
her flat nose. When the sisters are done with their work, they narrate stories from the day to each
other. Mother Marmee lectures the girls for being grateful for one’s blessings

Answer:
Meg feels especially burdened and wishes she could just have fun. Amy must return to school and Beth to her housework. Beth is too shy to go to school and does her lessons with her father when he is home. Ambitious Jo plans to do something "splendid" in time and often feels frustrated.
