Little Men

Before becoming a world-famous author, L.M. Alcott (1832—1888) worked as a nurse during the Civil War, fought against slavery, and was one of the first participants in the women's suffrage movement. She looked at the world and wrote about it as she lived — with faith in the future, with love and compassion for people. Loyalty to life's truths and high ideals, humor, and unwavering optimism will always attract young and adult readers to her books.
After the resounding success of "Little Women" and "Good Wives," Alcott created a third novel about the March family girls — "Little Men." The tireless Jo opened a school and provided shelter for rascals of various characters and ages. Without making strict rules, she shows that goodness is capable of performing miracles.
