About The Book



You already adore the story of these four sisters who, with little means, find their own paths in a tale full of laughter, love, loss, and family. Now, experience Louisa May Alcott’s classic novel in an entirely new and delightful way—as a cookbook.

You’ll learn to make ice cream with Meg, molasses candy with Jo, baked squash with Beth, pickled limes with Amy, and so much more. For a creative twist, these delicious step-by-step recipes are adapted from vintage Civil War-era cookbooks for the modern kitchen.

A perfect gift for Little Women fans everywhere, the book is packed with beautiful color photographs, timeless illustrations, favorite passages, historical trivia, and additional commentary by the authors, founders of 36 Eggs, the literary food blog.

About The Author

Jenne Bergstrom was raised by two summer camp directors but spent all her time reading instead of being outdoors.

Nowadays, she lives in a tiny house in San Diego, and runs a library in another charming mountain town. She is the cofounder of the literary culinary blog 36eggs.com, and her favorite Little Women character is Aunt March.
