So, i finally read up to pg200 from Little Women this week.
From these pages i was able to get a lot.
Laurence gets really close with the March family.
The main 'idea' i got from these pages (the moments i thought were the most important),
was that Mr.March (father) got sick, so Mrs. March had to go to the hospital and left her daughters at home for awhile (with Hannah, Mr.Laurence, Laurence...).
While she is gone, Beth goes to tend a sick baby. The baby ends up dying from scarlet fever, and so Beth also gets Scarlet fever (its contagious). Beth gets very sick.
From reading the summary of this book, and watching the t.v show 'Friends' (epidosde where Rachel and Joey switches their books, and Joey is crying at the end because he found out that beth dies) I know that Beth is going to die from it. Which kind of made the book less surprising.
Well I kind of enjoy this book, but its too long.

LOL. I hate long books too but it's worth reading it if it's good you know :) I love stories when one person gets close with another family becausethis shows that people love each other. It's so sad that the baby's sick because baby's just born and has a long way of life to go but if he/she gets sick, then their life time will shorten. Ah! the tv show program Friends have an episode about this?!?!? I love that show! I should definetly watch it and read this book :)
