It follows a year in which the four sisters face challenges in wanting to fit in, health scares, questioning identities, and finding their place while their father is overseas with the military and their mother working to make ends meet. Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy is a modern retelling of Little Women in graphic novel form that takes the essence of Louisa May Alcott’s classic and drops it in Brooklyn, New York, in 2019.

The endurance of this classic text speaks to its ideas of family, identity, and belonging that readers have connected with for over 150 years. We have been captivated by the energetic, dramatic, and entertaining relationships between Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy as they face the tribulations of growing from young girls to women. We have been drawn in time and again by their individual and distinct personalities as they navigate the struggles presented by their social and cultural circumstances. The story of the March sisters in Little Women has been retold and reimagined many times and in many formats since it was first published in 1868.
