(4) K-3 Illustrated by Bagram Ibatoulline. The March family celebrates Christmas and welcomes Father home from the Union Army in this warmhearted picture-book adaptation of scenes from Alcott's classic novel. Frederick incorporates memorable phrases into this historical-fiction narrative complemented by Ibatoulline's realistic gouache illustrations. However, the author and illustrator take unfortunate liberties with the original material (e.g., Beth as a blonde and the youngest).
