Rating:  Summary: UMMM.... OK, But the first one is much better Review: I have read Little Men a dozen times over and each time I either find something new...or just love the parts I already read! It is excellent, with great morals, and true-to-life characters.
Rating:  Summary: Very good read, even as an adult! Review: I loved Little Women and this book just confirms what a wonderful writer she was. Lots of hidden truths and wisdoms.
Rating:  Summary: Excellent Children/Young Adult Book Review: I read this book to do a critical analysis of it. I enjoyed the stories of the boys and all that went on in their lives. I would recommend this book to any child or young adult that is looking for an interesting and easy read.
Rating:  Summary: You'll laugh and cry Review: It is truly a shame that the highest number of stars you can rate a book is five, because I would give this book a million stars if I could.It is truly one of the two best books I have ever read. (The other off course is Little Women). Little men is a book that can make you both laugh and cry. The morals inside are more useful than any of the ten commandments. Louisa May Alcott has definetly done it again. Without giving away everything, these are some of the reasons why you will enjoy the book: 1) You see Jo grow up. She is no longer the wild child who's impetuous and androgynous character often lead her to trouble. She inherits maternal qualities that you never expected Jo to have. 2) You will get more insight on the professor. Although I truly wanted Teddy and Jo to get together, this book made me think otherwise. Professor Bhaer, with Jo's help, makes a delightful father to the boys. He is the one you will get most of the life morals from. 3) The boys in Plumfield are definetly the key figures in the book. They create both the mischievious and melancholy stories. As I said, 'you'll laugh and cry'. Reading about these boys will make everyone reflect on their own lives. 4) Teddy grows up too. If you enjoyed the young scandulous Teddy, you'll enjoy the new one even more. In little men, Teddy (like Jo) has grown into a real mature father. There are plenty more exciting things in the book. It is truly a classic masterpiece recommended to anyone who needs a lift in their spirit.
Rating:  Summary: "Alcott, you are great" Review: Little Men is the funniest of all the three books. I like this book, but not as much as the Jo's Boys or Little Women. Little Men begins with 'Nat as the 1st ch. If you have seen the movie and think it is great, wait till you read the book. The novel is much more sophisticated and very touching. The movie basically concentrates on Nat and Dan, but the novel is about every single boy and girl. If you've seen the movie and didnt like it, guess what, try the novel! My fav't characters are everybody. Old Chirper(Nat), Dan, Demi, Daisy, Tommy, Franz, Commodore(Emil), Nan, Princess(Bess), little Ted, Rob, Jack..too many people. If you like the story of boys and girls, this is one of the books to read. If this is the Alcott's 1st book you've read, TRY ALL! ALCOTT IS THE BEST! My fav't part is the LITTLE COOKSTOVE(iron). Its so neat, and how Daisy, Nat, Demi, Dan, Emil, Tommy, and dont forget our Teddy, and Rob, standing up for each others.
Rating:  Summary: Awesome Little Men Review: Little Men was a very well written book. It had many fun adventures, great characters, great dialog, and all in all it was an awesome book. I loved the way the author wrote the little children's voices just right!! It just made me have to stop and laugh! When you read this book it is not like reading, it is like watching a movie!! That is how well written this book really is!! You could even see the house and the rooms!! I know what every room looks like and how to get there! I could see the boy's foot when he hurt it and I could see his face when the doctor had to fix it. I love this book!! It is not a girly book like I thought it would be. In fact it is quite a boy book!! A boy or a girl could read this book and really enjoy it!! I would recommend this book for ages 12 and up. By Seth Courtney Age 13 Grade 7
Rating:  Summary: An excellent book! Review: This book is very heartwarming, and, at times, funny. The characters seem real, and Louisa May Alcott portrayed the girls, Nan and Daisy, very realistically-one a tomboy, one a "girl". They boys have funny jokes, and we feel Jo's pain after one boy, Dan, runs away. This is an excellent book...get it!
Rating:  Summary: This is a great book!! Review: This is one of my all time favorite books, and that is saying alot. This is the type of book that once you pick it up, you don't want to put it down, and once you have finished reading it and re-reading all your favorite little juicy and sweet parts and are forced to put it down, you are left with an all consuming feeling of innerpeace. It makes you want to live a better life and live life to it's fullest. It makes you you want to enjoy every part of your life. This is the book for anyone who needs a escape from any problems in their life, or want to lead a more loving and enchanting life. It is also simply a wonderful book for someone who is in the mood for a pleasant story.
Rating:  Summary: WISH THEY WERE REAL!!!!!!!!!! Review: This is the continuation of Little Women, and Jo's Boys will be the cont. of this book. Little Men is a book about the boys and girls of all ages, and if you thought little women was much about women, READ THIS BOOK. The boys are all different ages. There is musical Nat, bookworm Demi, troublesome Tommy, fireband Dan(my fav't character), resonsible Franz, commodore Emil, Little Ted, Rob...and dont forget girls, Lovely Daisy, ms.giddy gaddy Nan, and pretty Bess....and so many other characters. They just will not be friends, but a great big FAMILY. They will be happy, sad, confused, angry...at each other, but will not be a problem for Mr.&Mrs. Bhaer(Jo), Mr.&Mrs. Brooke(Meg), and Mr.and Mrs. Laurence(laurie&Amy). These young men and women will be so different, yet so together and close!
Rating:  Summary: GOOGOOGOO2 Review: This is the sequel to Little Women, and it's about Jo, the tomboy, her 'hubby', haha, and the little boys that they take in to raise. This book was wonderful. It was nearly as good as Little Women (I like Little Women better), and it touched my heart just as deeply as Little Women did. It's so cute! Hehe, well, in my opinion anyway. If you liked Little Women, you should read Little Men. If you thought that Little Women was too girly or feminine, read Little Men. There's not too much femininism (if that is a word) in this book, and it's good to boot, hehe.
