Little Men Audiobook

" I loved this. I found so many examples of great mentoring and parenting. I took a ton of notes! "

" I like this story even better than little women. I like how Jo has grown up to run a school for boys and how she takes in and cares of so many. "

" This is the sequel to Little Women. Read on, my friends! "

" I enjoyed it more than Little Women. "

" My favourite of the series "

" Follow up to Little Women, this book focuses on Jo and her husband moving into Plumfield, a home she inherited from her aunt, where she lives with and schools 12 boys, some of whom are related to her. I found this book less enjoyable than Little Women. It was hard for me to keep track of the boys and there was quite a lot of moralizing and the use of "little stories" to shame the boys into behaving better. Regardless, it was nice to catch up with Jo, Meg, John Brooke, Amy and Laurie, even in passing. "

" This book is heartwarming and always sends out the right message.. But I still didn't really enjoy it as much as I could have. I guess it's because it's made up of many little stories, instead of one big story and I'm just not a big fan of short stories. I really liked Dan & Nat though and was really happy to see how they turned out. :) "

" My other favorite Louisa May Alcott Book!!!!!!!! "

" This book is a great story about a woman, Jo March rescued various orphan in a place called Plumfield. The boys and girls have different personalities and unique talents but they also have flaws that Jo March has to change them using numerous ways. The book also has a variety of useful vocabulary. "

" I really enjoyed this book :) it was throughly entertaining! Very well written! "

" Another re-read. Not as good as 'Little Women' (one of my all time favorites) but good. Very preachy but you have to wonder if more people read and followed some of the philosophies expounded by Alcott, Thoreau and Walden if the world wouldn't be a better place. "

" I love Little Women - and Little Men is along the same vein but I didn't get into it as much as Alcott's best seller. Still a charming read though. "

" I always loved this book when I was younger. I always preferred it to Little Women. "

" Biographical fiction of a family's life after the time of her first novel, Little Women. This novel is more fictional than the first, and to my mind somewhat less compelling, perhaps because the Civil War is over in this scenario. In my estimation, "

" One of the best parenting books I've ever read. Very inspiring house full of boys and their adventures, and Jo and how she mothered. Lovely... "

" Third in the 'Little Women' series, and a continuation of the previous books, focussing mostly on the sons of the original March girls. A bit of moralising in places, and of course it's old-fashioned, but a pleasant light read with some moving moments. "

" Another wonderful Alcott book- there were a few great "parenting" tips that I'll have to go back and re-read. It takes me awhile to get through these books b/c of the language style, but so far they all have been wonderful! "

" I missed reading this sequel to Little Women when I was younger. I don't think I would have appreciated it then as much as I do now, as a parent. I thought it was such a wonderful,innocent and uplifting story. Jo and Fritz deliver a school for boys from homeless, poor or broken backgrounds. They vow to teach young and restless boys to be noble and worthy gentlemen. They do this through love, patience and many experiments. Their school/home for boys is a little microcosm for better parenting. I even grew to admire Fritz, even though, as a young reader, I never quite got over the fact that Jo wouldn't marry Laurie and chose the professor instead. I can see why a little better now, and Laurie even makes a few befitting appearances in this summer at Plumfield. "

" This was written with so much heart, Lousia May Alcott is quickly becoming my favorite author. "

" I read it as a teenager and I still read it now. "

" Good Wives is still at present my favourite, but I really liked this one - to me it was like a male version of Malory Towers! It made me laugh...and really depressed me at the same time! "

" Simalar to Little Women. Very good again! "

" A really fun book about Jo's experience with her school for boys. The story details the adventures of the different boys, some of them her nephews and others orphans they have taken it. It is really cute and deals with mostly lighthearted events. Very reminiscent of some of the funny adventures of Jo and her sister's in Little Women. I have started Jo's Boys, and I am enjoying it. "

" Kind of sappy, but nice. Very much like "Little Women" in the feel of the book. Not deep and a little preachy at times, but overall pleasant "

" Great Book, what can I say. If you like Little Women you should read this! "

" Not bad, one of the reasons I finished it is because I wanted to read all three in the series..But no not really my thing.. "

" A wonderful sequel to Little Women. It talks about Josephine's school and the boys who attend. I read this book for my literature class, senior year of high school for a term paper. I got an A ;) "

" Another wonderful Alcott book- there were a few great "parenting" tips that I'll have to go back and re-read. It takes me awhile to get through these books b/c of the language style, but so far they all have been wonderful! "

" good book would recommend to children to read very easy to read. About the lives of children growing up "

" Enjoyable to read to Audrey and the boys....fun after reading Little Women and March....made me think that Susie Walton may have read it and thought H and I would have our own Plumfield. Hopeful story about a more innocent time, but still troubled youth. Thumbs up--a classic. "

" So this book shows that if you're an interesting youth that you'll grow up to be a placid sentimental grown up. I found the "development" of Jo in this book to be awful. I have Jo's Boys on my kindle but I'm not sure if its worthwhile continuing *sigh* "

" A charming books, leaving you wanting more stories about the March Family. "

" Another one I owned. It's interesting to me that, even though the title is "Little Men," the story still manages to mostly be about the March sisters. I totally wanted to go to Jo's school! "

" I just read Christine's review of this book and I suppose it could seem trite and slow. But, I loved it. I like the idea of an idealistic life and this showcases one beautifully. I love that children are accepted unconditionally and given the opportunity to be children. Wonderful and lovely. "

" enjoyed reading the funny adventures of the children. "

" To this day, I love having a house full of boys - my own personal Plumfield. How cool is that? "

" Not as good as Little Women but a good read. "

" Not as good as the first but new characters were incorporated well and old characters showed development. The story line is continued from the previous book and relevant. "

" This is a fun continuation of "Little Women". "

" Charming sequel. But the baby talk of the younger children drove me nuts! "

" I cried while reading this book it was the first time I'd ever cried durring a book. I didn't know it was possible... "

" This is the sequel to Little Women. Jo and the Professor run a school for boys in their home, Plumfield. The story revolves around the various boys and their antics. I only like it because I want to know what happened to the main characters in Little Women. "

" I haven't read Little Men since I was 12 or 13. I am happy to report that Jo's little school of misfits is as charming and darling as ever. "

" I read this a long time ago, I don't even remember when. Maybe 6th grade? But I loved it. I wanted a household of boys of my own. Jo is an inspiration. "

" I can see now how the story is anything but realistic, and yet I love the series for its warmth, hope, and appreciation of a dream to bring out the promise in the next generation. "

" Jo is fully grown, and she starts a boarding school for boys and girls. "

" Bleah! "

" I enjoyed the little lessons of wisdom and truth weaved in and around the story. I admire Louisa May Alcott. What a great Woman! "

" I read this before Little Women. I enjoyed every story. I think it helped me enjoy Little Women even more because I knew what happened in the end. "

" I learned that if you never give up, and set your heart to it, you can do anything, like change boys to men. "

" berbeda jauh dari little women. "

" This sequel to Little Women includes many of the same characters, but Jo March is now Jo Bhaer. The Bhaers run a school at Plumfield. The book has no distinguishable plot, but the kids are charming enough to hold the reader's interest. It's like a fictional parenting book. "

" I loved Little Women, and while this is a good book, I never loved it in the same way. Maybe it's because the main female character (Jo) is older and the young characters are boys. Little Women was more like me and my sister and my cousins (all girls). Definitely worth reading, though! "

" I can see now how the story is anything but realistic, and yet I love the series for its warmth, hope, and appreciation of a dream to bring out the promise in the next generation. "

" This is another fabulous book by Louisa May Alcott. I read this for the first time in 5th grade. "

" A timeless classic and a companion piece to Little Women "

" Not as good as Little Women, but still excellent. "

" This one I absolutely loved, every bit as much as Little Women. It was so cute! "

" Loved it! I read it to my brothers a few years ago and they loved it too! "

" Read as a 13-year-old and loved it! "

" hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm "

" I liked it better than Little Woman. "

" while clearly young adult fiction this book has an added level for parents. alcott was truly expressing her view on what the ideal parent should do to instruct and discipline and raise children into "good" adults. inspired me to be a better parent. "

" I recently read Little Women, and really enjoyed it, and so I went searching for more by Ms Alcott. This one was a wonderful find. It is a great lesson in how to raise good, strong, upstanding, young men. Love them and know them! One for my home book shelf. "

" even better than little women, more exciting. i love dan. "

" I still want Jo and Laurie to get together. "

" It's a sweet book!!! "

" I enjoyed the little lessons of wisdom and truth weaved in and around the story. I admire Louisa May Alcott. What a great Woman! "

" Definitely not as good as Little Women. "

" Not as good as Little Women. "

" Another re-read. Not as good as 'Little Women' (one of my all time favorites) but good. Very preachy but you have to wonder if more people read and followed some of the philosophies expounded by Alcott, Thoreau and Walden if the world wouldn't be a better place. "

" This book is good. A bunch of sweet stories that take you back to a simpler time.....when men and boys were kind and good. "

" I downloaded the collected works of Louisa May Alcott & have been re-reading the ouevre. "

" I think I may have loved this even more than Little Women.... moms of boys will delight in this story... truly wonderful. "

" I wish I'd reviewed this sooner (I read it a few weeks ago), because now this one and Jo's Boys are sort of meshed together in my brain. I loved them both! "

" This is a GREAT book so far! "

" This book was about Jo's life after her marriage. She opens an orphanage for boys with her husband. It's as charming and delightful to read as "Little Women". "

" Liked it almost as much as little women! "

" By Louisa May Alcott. "

" Good follow up story. Morality, love and hardship blah blah blah. But I enjoy blah blah blah sometimes. If you just want simple values and a good finish, go for it. "

" This was an enjoyable book to read. Enjoyed every chapter! "

" Read this when I was about 12 & picked it up again. It was such a pleasant read. "

" Not as good as Little Women. "

" Good book, but don't read it while you are morning sick. It makes you feel even more inadequate compared to Jo- who is the perfect mom/teacher/woman. *sigh* "

" One of the best parenting books I've ever read. Very inspiring house full of boys and their adventures, and Jo and how she mothered. Lovely... "

" good story. Some of the ideas for discipline were quite interesting. You can see the hope of teaching the boys and girls to be fine gentlemen and ladies throughout. Very likable characters. I wish I could listen to Nat play the violin. "

" Not as good as Little Women, of course, but still an enjoyable read, and good as far as sequals go. It was faithful to the characters and introduced some new interesting ones. "

" I remember thinking this was only mildly entertaining. "

" I enjoyed the book but Little Women was far better. "

" I thought this book was really boring. I got tired of the altruistic, fair attitude of all those involved and how quickly some of the boys' views changed 'with just a little love'. Pu-lease. Let me see Jo March raise Adeline and see how calm and patient she is then.... "

" Loved this book! Shows a great leadership education home! "

" One of my favorite books of all time "

" I love Little Men just as much as I love Little Women. So fantastic! "

" Though I read this as a teen, it was refreshing and more enjoyable to read it now that I am in my 40s. The story was just as fresh and enjoyable as the prequel, "Little Women". "

" A must read for anyone who wants to be a great mentor!! "

" Biographical fiction of a family's life after the time of her first novel, Little Women. This novel is more fictional than the first, and to my mind somewhat less compelling, perhaps because the Civil War is over in this scenario. In my estimation, "

" Not as well written as Little Women, but still a great story about youth, learning, and growing. Also made me want to be a better person. "

" I did really like this book and probably would have rated it higher, but the fact that the adults in these books always knew perfectly how to handle every situation with these boys gave me a bit of a parenting complex. "

" Read from 3/9 - 3/16. "

" my favorite author. "

" This is my favorite LMA book. I like all of her books, but this one created characters and relationships that stand the test of time. "

" i will have to blog about this -i learned a lot of education/parenting tips from this book! it'd been a while since I'd read it. "

" Membaca buku ini bisa terharu atau ketawa kecil. Mengajari tentang kebaikan dan sifat yg seharusnya dimiliki seorang manusia. "

" I thought this book was a little slow, but my children really enjoyed it (I read it out loud to them). It is a great parenting manual. It was filled of little bits of wisdom throughout and it had good moral lessons for the kids that we were able to discuss. "

" Not as good as the first but new characters were incorporated well and old characters showed development. The story line is continued from the previous book and relevant. "

" I like this story even better than little women. I like how Jo has grown up to run a school for boys and how she takes in and cares of so many. "

" My other favorite book! "

" Membaca buku ini bisa terharu atau ketawa kecil. Mengajari tentang kebaikan dan sifat yg seharusnya dimiliki seorang manusia. "

" I like more Little women,this one is impregnated of respectability..nothing to say about it but when it's too much is really too much!! "

" This is my favorite out of all Alcott's books. "

" My first experience with a sequel- loved it! Was so glad to revisit the fabulous March family-have reread this quite a few times- As with Little Women I totally escape into this book always suprized to wake up in this modern world "

" After re-reading Little Women I was inspired to read this one...I've had my aunt's set of Louisa May Alcott books for nearly 20 (?!) years and have, until now, only read Little Women! This made for pleasant before-bed reading. :) "

" A nice story about love, relationships, and lives lessons learned. I enjoyed it greatly. It was a story that I felt all the emotions in live. A sweet book. "

" I LOVED this book as much as Little Women! Can't wait to read the third 'Jo's Boys'! If you haven't read these books, you need to! Truly are classics! "

" I loved it almost as much as Little Women. It's a continuation of Little Women. The March girls are all grown up with families and responsibilities. Little Men focuses on their children. "

" I actually liked this book better than Little Women because they did more and got into more trouble. It was definitely more exciting than Little Women. "

" This is the sequel to Little Women. Read on, my friends! "

" liked it even better than Little Women "

" Not nearly as good or as satisfying as Little Women, but a fun read nonetheless, for a lot of the same reasons. "
