Send us Fan MailWelcome to Stories Come to Life. I am your host, Kathryn Lopez Luker. Here is the first episode of Louisa May Alcott’s delightful book, An Old-Fashioned Girl. Here we meet Polly Milton as she leaves her home in the country to go visit Fanny Shaw, who lives in town and is already quite a young lady. Polly, who is nearly the same age as Fanny, still considers herself a young girl. She doesn’t have the fancy clothes and big city sensibilities Fanny does, but somehow her kind and friendly manners and her old-fashioned courtesy endear her to everyone, even Tom, who plays a mean trick on his sister while the group is making molasses candy.Now sit back, relax, and listen to this story come to life.Listening to audiobooks really does count as reading, and there's no better way to relax than to hear Stories Come to Life!
