Little Women P.48-68 (CH 5 - 6)

sammary : Chapter 5 is about Jo and chapter 6 is about the oldest sister Meg.
In chapter 5, Jo and Meg had a apointment with the guy--Laurie. Amy wanted to go but Jo didn't want to go with her.Jo had a bad temper. She said something that made Amy unhappy. Amy was upset, so she did something bad.She burned Jo's important writing book. Jo was so angry, she would never forgive her. However, one day when Jo and Laurie went to skating, Amy followed them because she wanted to go very badly. Laurie tested the ice.It was dangerous because the weather had been warm. He shouted and said it wasn't saft in the middle. Jo noticed that but Amy didn't. She crashed through the ice. Laurie rescued her immediately. After that, Jo was noticed that she loved her sister very much, and she blamed her dreadful temper.
Chapter 6 is about Meg's friend, Annie Moffat, invited her for a two-week stay.The Moffats were very fashionable but Meg was poor, she didn't have any beautiful dresses. There were a lot parties in Moffats' house. Once Moffats had a big party, the Moffats said they wanted to make Meg be a fine lady, but artually, they were making a fool of her. After that, when she went back home, she told that to her family.At that time, she though 'family is the best'.
Opinion: After I read this book until chapter 6, I noticed that this novel have a massage ''Family is important''. When I read chapter 4 last week, I think it's about the love story.
In Jo case, I discovered that Jo's temper was bad and Amy was a willful child.I think they will change after that event. On the other hand, Meg was so poor because of these girls. Now Meg is my favourite character, but maybe I will change my mind next week.

It's difficult to choose a favorite, because each of the sisters is so unique. Do you think Laurie is important to the story? How?
