Little Men Zusammenfassung

Little Men Louisa May Alcott

'We always allow one pillow-fight Saturday night'

Did you ever wonder what happened to Jo March from Little Women? She grew up, of course, and followed her dream to become a writer. In addition, she opened a school, home to her two children and twelve other boys. There's accident-prone Tommy, bookish Demi, and greedy Stuffy. Into this large, unusual family arrives Nat - a skinny, nervous orphan boy with no schooling, just a fearless talent for the violin. Amid all the scrapes and japes of twelve rambunctious boys, can little Nat find his place at Plumfield?

Includes exclusive material: In the 'Backstory' you can find out what inspired the author and test your knowledge of Jo's enormous family...

Little Men Bewertungen

Louisa May Alcott is the only author who remains both popular and literary today... Little Women was widely read, but its sequel Little Men even more so, perhaps because it was checked out by boys, too. * New York Times *
Six generations of readers have found in the story of the March family universal truths about girls, families and growing up * Guardian *
The best boys - in the literary sense - that we have ever come across * Spectator *
