Christmas won't be the same this year for Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy, as their father is away fighting in the Civil War, and the family has fallen on hard times. But though they may be poor, life for the four March sisters is rich with colour, as they play games, put on wild theatricals, make new friends, argue, grapple with their vices, learn from their mistakes, nurse each other through sickness and disappointments, and get into all sorts of trouble.


梅格、喬、貝絲跟艾美今年的聖誕節將與往年不同，她們的父親因為投身內戰而離家，家裡因此陷入困境，不過就算馬區家這四位姊妹花經濟狀況不好，她們的生活可不會因此貧乏，反而還多采多姿呢！她們玩遊戲、熱衷演戲、結交新朋友、彼此爭吵、對抗惡習、從錯誤中學習、生病沮喪時互相照顧、還一起惹上各式各樣的麻煩。
