Happy holidays, LGB listeners! Hope yours was full of peace, joy, light, loved ones, and books. For Christmas, I received this beautiful illustrated edition of Little Women by from my sister. A few quiet minutes alone by the tree were spent reading Jack and Jill, which includes a lovely festive Christmas scene.

Jamie and I have been busy as merry holiday sprites, working on bonus episodes for winter 2026. Until then, I plan on watching at least one Little Women movie adaptation while I'm on break. Which one will YOU be watching?

What did August look like for the Alcotts? I was curious, so I did some digging, wrote a post on my Substack, and called it the Alcott Almanac. Take a look at jillfuller.substack.com. This might be a monthly thing, so subscribe to get the next post in September!
