The March family lives in a home that is filled with the
activities of four lively and active, growing girls and their mother. Father is away,
involved in the fighting of the Civil War, but the girls entertain themselves and help
others with their mother's encouragement and prodding. There is not a great deal of
money, but it is not missed because of the abundant love and faith in the
family.
Laurie lives with his wealthy grandfather. He is
lonely and envious of the shared adventures his neighbors create for themselves and
gratefully joins in whenever possible. Laurie lacks for nothing in a material sense and
delights in being able to share his possessions with the March family as is appropriate
to their needs and in keeping with his respect of their striving to be
independent.
