About this episode

Today, I want to tell you about a book that I really love—Little Women, by Louisa May Alcott.

To be honest, it’s one of my all-time favorite stories.
It’s warm, emotional, and full of life. I’ve listened to the audiobook version, and what makes it extra special is that it’s a full-cast recording. That means each character has a different voice. It’s not just one person reading the book—it sounds more like a movie. And it really brings the story to life.
