Little Women: A Celebration

I hosted this program in December 2014 in honor of the 20th anniversary of the 1994 film. Little Women just celebrated its 150th publication anniversary in 2018.

I read A Little Women Christmas by Heather Vogel Frederick.

I had the following books and movies on display. Some were from my personal collection.

• Copies of Little Women
• Books about or set during the Civil War
• Little Women & Me by Lauren Baratz-Logsted 
• Little Women and Werewolves by Porter Grand
• March by Geraldine Brooks
• Louisa May Alcott: The Woman Behind Little Women by Harriet Reisen 
• Louisa and the Missing Heiress by Anna MacLean
• Beyond Little Women: A Story about Louisa May Alcott by Susan Bivin Aller 
• Little Vampire Women by Lynn Messina 
• Louisa May’s Battle: How the Civil War Led to Little Women by Kathleen Krull 
• The Mother-Daughter Book Club by Heather Vogel Frederick
• An Old-Fashioned Girl by Louisa May Alcott 
• The Quiet Little Woman; Tilly's Christmas; Rosa's Tale: Three Enchanting Christmas Stories by Louisa May Alcott 
• Film Versions of Little Women (1933, 1949, 1978, 1994)

I had several options for games: Rigmarole, Compliments, Authors, Tangrams, Ribbon's End, and Name the Nursery Rhyme.

For a craft, we made cup and ball toys using dixie cups, masking tape, and string.

For refreshments we had apple cider, popcorn, licorice, nonpareils (Sno-Caps), and Necco wafers.
