Little Men

by Louisa May Alcott

Book 2 of the Little Women series

Jo March and Professor Bhaer turn Plumfield into a lively school where boys with difficult histories learn alongside the March family's younger generation. Daily lessons are mixed with arguments, pranks, illness, work, and the gradual discovery of individual gifts. Jo's practical kindness gives the household structure without removing its noise or freedom. Warm and companionable, this sequel suits family reading for anyone who enjoys found community, moral growth, creative education, and children becoming themselves.
