Synopsis "Aunt Jo's Scrap-Bag, Volume III;Cupid and Chow-chow, and Other Stories"

First published in 1896, this book contains volume III of "Aunt Jo's Scrap-Bag", a six-volume collection of classic children's stories by American author Louisa May Alcott (1832 - 1888). Alcott was an American short story writer, novelist, and poet most famous for writing the novel "Little Women", as well as its sequels "Little Men" and "Jo's Boys". She grew up in New England and became associated with numerous notable intellectuals of her time, including Nathaniel Hawthorne, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and Henry David Thoreau. The stories include: "Cupid and Chow-Chow", "Huckleberry", "Nelly's Hospital", "Grandma's Team", "Fairy Pinafores", "Mamma's Plot", "Kate's Choice", "The Moss People", "What Fanny Heard", and "A Marine Merry-making". This charming collection is perfect for young children and would make for ideal bedtime reading material. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.

Louisa May Alcott (1832-1888) was born in Germantown, Pennsylvania, and after spending some time in Boston, died in Concord, Massachusetts.

The energy and independent spirit she had in her childhood stayed with her throughout her life and led her to take on various jobs to financially support her family. In 1854, she published her first book, Flower Fables, followed by more than thirty novels and story collections. However, her name would always be linked to Little Women, a novel she wrote between May and July 1868 at the request of her publishers.
