Little Women/Trivia
- Adaptation Overdosed: Little Women has been made into several stage plays, movies (see The Film of the Book in the main section), TV miniseries, anime, an opera and a Broadway musical.
- Creator Breakdown: Jo's Boys was written in segments over several years towards the end of Alcott's life that were fraught with illness and the deaths of loved ones. On the last page, she breaks the fourth wall and writes that she is strongly tempted to destroy Plumfield and all its inhabitants in an earthquake, but she won't.
- Executive Meddling: Not an influence on the plot but lampshaded within. Jo meets several publishers who won't publish her work unless she piles up the tragedy and gore and cuts the aesops because "Morals don't sell."
