Mr. March lost most of his wealth trying to help one of his friends, and to help support themselves and their family, Meg and Jo got jobs in the King household taking care of the children, and Jo got a job being the companion to their rich Aunt March. Since Beth was so shy she did not do well in school, so she stayed at home and helped Hannah around the house. Amy was still in school and is the most selfish for the March girls. Jo is rambunctious and gets along as well as she can with Aunt March and when the old lady goes to sleep, Jo raids the library and reads as much as she can. Beth loves music and to play the piano, but wish the family had more music and a better piano for her to play. The girls are complaining about their lot in life, and their lack of money, when Marmee sits them down and tells them a story and shows them, that they have a lot to be thankful for in their life, such as family.
