Louisa May Alcott was an American writer of great relevance. Although she published many short stories in magazines of the time and different novels, none reached the cultural relevance and classic status of Little Women, which became an immediate success and brought Alcott great popularity. Carmen Gil began publishing books in 2003, and more than 90 of her works have since been published, many of them translated into languages other than Spanish. She specializes in children's literature.
