Friends and Books

5 friends are discussing their favorite book, "Little Women". Determine from the clues each girl's age, her favorite character and her favorite scene in the book.

1. The 14 year old is a tomboy, so she really relates to Jo. The youngest and oldest, in some order, like Meg's wedding scene and Amy the best.

2. The one who likes Beth is older than Bree who is older than the one who likes the Christmas scene. Marie gets so emotional at Mr. March's homecoming, but that's not her favorite scene.

3. The two 13 year olds are Anna and the one who loves the book's happy ending. The girl who likes the homecoming scene is older than Lisa.

4. The 5 girls are represented by the 12 year old, Laurie, Jill, Laurie's proposal to Amy, and Meg. The girl who likes Meg is older than Lisa.

5. The 17 year old is a romantic so she likes either Meg's wedding or the proposal the best. Although the book is about 4 women, Bree likes the male character best.
