Abstract:

The title, echoing a shout by her fellow schoolchildren, hinted at the poverty stricken circumstances revealed in her clothes. Christmas Day, though, was an occasion to forget all she lacked, because of presents given by relatives in California. The present most cherished was a copy of Louisa May Alcott, Little Women; she could relate all too well to its main characters, the Marsh family.
