Praise for Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy: "[...] this tale offers a
contemporary vision of sisterhood that will appeal to a diverse
audience." — Kirkus Reviews
"Smart and thoughtfully rendered, this modern retelling will
resonate with today's readers." — Publishers Weekly

Ostertag, author of THE WITCH BOY
"A fun, ballet-inspired hero’s journey, full of heart, trials, and
good humor." — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
Brightly hued illustrations, exaggerated expressions, and polished

shake off expectations we’re born into, even ones that seem
well-intentioned or positive. — Bulletin of the Center for
Children’s Books
