Little Monsters

With a beast terrorizing their town, Meg March will do anything to protect her and her sisters’ monstrous secret in this “gripping, heartwarming” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) modern supernatural middle grade retelling of the beloved classic Little Women that’s “packed with monsters and mystery” (School Library Journal).

Meg March and her three sisters are monsters. No, really. Meg has teeth that are a little too sharp. Jo gets furry under the full moon. Beth goes night flying on wings that are nearly impossible to hide under her sweaters. And Amy? Well, don’t let her near a body of water or she’ll start sprouting her mermaid’s tail. Meg is sure their foster mom, Marmee, wouldn’t like any of this if she knew. And Jo’s best friend, Laurie, the nice boy next door, would run screaming. To make matters worse, Meg’s small town outside of Salem is on edge. A vicious beast has been spotted in the forest, and Farmer Bhaer believes it’s responsible for his missing chickens. Meg is sure to be blamed if anyone realizes she’s a monster in disguise. And the closer it gets to Halloween, the surer the town is that something evil is hiding in the woods. Meg doesn’t always remember what she gets up to at night, and sometimes, she wakes alone in the forest and has to find her way back. With John Brooke determined to find out just what Meg is hiding and locals working to uncover the monsters in their midst, Meg must find the culprit herself—or risk losing the little home she’s found with her sisters.
