Little Men


Read by LibriVox Volunteers

(4.6 stars; 311 reviews)

Little Men (published 1871) is considered the second book of the Little Women trilogy written by Louisa May Alcott. (The book Good Wives (1869) was originally the sequel to the novel Little Women (1868), however those two novels are now usually published as a single volume.) The final book of the trilogy is Jo's Boys (1886).

Little Men follows the life of Jo Bhaer and the students who live and learn at the Plumfield Estate School that she runs with her husband. The mischievous kids, whom she loves and cares for as her own, learn valuable lessons as they become proper gentlemen and ladies. We also get cameo appearances of almost all the characters found in the previous books, almost all of them happy and well. (Summary from Wikipedia) (9 hr 44 min)

Reviews

Little Men


(4 stars)

Nearly all of the readers were very good. Some were a little hard to understand or seemed to lose their place momentarily. That said, this is a remarkable service and great fun.

I was so excited when I heard of Little Men I have already listened to Little Women. Little Men was really hard to find though my library didn’t have it because someone had lost it. I love listening to LibriVox but it doesn’t have every thing sadly overall I love LibriVox and hope you can check it out!

so sweet!!!!


(5 stars)

If you have read Little Women, you will love its sequel, Little Men. It's all about Jo's boys at her school. So press play enter a world full of fun and frolic, but also times of trouble. This sweet book , completely summarises the joys and the hardships of living with young people.

just like little woman, only males


(4 stars)

cute book about the daily life in the home for boys, or little men. not really a book a boy would like probably. but cute stuff happens and some good ideas for dealing with children.

Who wouldn’t want to read/listen to this book?


(5 stars)

This book is great, Louisa M. Alcott had such a great understanding and ideas of to raise kids at even such a young age. Perhaps she used some of her stories as tips of how to raise her own kids. The readers who read this excellent book were pretty good in my opinion, except a couple who I found a little hard to understand/hear. Moreover, these readers are VOLUNTEERS which makes me feel great that this book was read for all of us who can’t find time to read this. Definitely read this excellent book if anyone has the time to. Louisa M. Alcott Rest In Peace.

Great!

I really loved it.😘 But I feel like some of the readers didn't read the voices the way they would have actually sounded.😒 But other than that I really liked the reading! Thanks to all the readers who helped narrate .😋

heart warming

I loved this book so much! It was a true sequel of the March family, and paints a wonderful picture of Jo carrying out her dream of running a school for boys. You will laugh and cry over this story!
