Cupid and Chow-chow - Louisa May Alcottová

'Cupid and Chow-chow' is an adorable tale of a rosy, sweet boy named Cupid and his mischievous cousin Chow-Chow who he waits on hand and foot. As with much of Alcott's work, there is a subliminal social and moral discussion at play. At some levels it's a discussion on women's roles, the ongoing suffragette movement and the traditional role of femininity in society. It remains subtle however and does not overshadow the simply adorable tale presented to the reader. It represents excellent reading for readers of all ages, particularly those interested in the early feminist and suffragette movements.
