LULU's LIBRARY VOL III - the Last 9 of the 32 Stories in this series

Book excerpt: Louisa May Alcott (November 29, 1832 – March 6, 1888) was an American novelist, short story writer and poet best known as the author of the novel Little Women (1868). Her youngest sister May died in 1879 and Louisa took over the care of her niece, Lulu, who was named after Louisa and hence the name of these books – this being the second of three volumes. Alcott just managed to complete the 3 volumes as a lasting reminder for Lulu before she, herself, passed.

The Silver Party 4. The Blind Lark 5. Music and Macaroni 6. The Little Red Purse 7. Sophie's Secret 8. Dolly's Bedstead 9. Trudel's Siege In all, Lulu's Library is a collection of 32 children’s short stories in three volumes written between 1886–1889. 10% of the profit from this book is donated to charities. ============== KEYWORDS/TAGS: Lulu, Library, Louisa May Alcott, Little Women, May Alcott, Lulu alcott, children’s stories, volume 3, Recollections, Childhood, Christmas Turkey, Silver Party, Blind Lark, Music, Macaroni, Little, Red, Purse, Sophie, Secret, Dolly, Bedstead, Trudel, Siege
