Children's Literature

Fans of Little Women and its sequel Little Men, might enjoy this second sequel that continues to chronicle events, both happy and sad, in the life of the March, Bhaer, Brooke and Lawrence families. Ten years have passed since the end of Little Men. Many of the now adult boys and girls of Plumfield School are returning to visit, and they often receive advice from Jo and Meg. One of the novel's most appealing characters, Nan is still headstrong and independent, but is channeling her energies into helping others as Doctor Nan, instead of annoying people with her pranks as "Naughty Nan." Her efforts to kindly thwart Tom's romantic advances, and the romantic career problems of some of the other characters, make this a novel that would probably appeal to an older age range than its predecessors.
