This was a great book. I enjoyed reading it. There were some romantic parts, that I liked to read, and there were also some sad parts. I recommend this book to girls, because guys wouldn't relate to the Little Women in this book. Gen F.

Little Men

As a sequel to Little Women it simply continued the story of the women growing older and getting married, etc. It's a good story and has more happening than Little Women. Cristina R.
