Little Men

''The best boys - in the literary sense - that we have ever come across'' SPECTATOR '' Little Women was widely read, but its sequel Little Men even more so, perhaps because it was checked out by boys, too'' NEW YORK TIMES ''It takes so little to make a child happy, that it is a pity in a world full of sunshine and pleasant things, that there should be any wistful faces, empty hands, or lonely little hearts.'' Jo March - now Mrs Bhaer - is married, and the couple have set up Plumfield, a boarding school for orphans. With twelve boys to care for, as well as their own two sons, the Bhaers rarely have a minute to themselves, but though they are busy, they are happy and fulfilled, guiding their young charges with wisdom and compassion. With so many lively children, though, it takes the support of the whole March family to prevent the boys'' mischievous scrapes from leading to full-scale disasters. Also available in Virago Children''s Classics: Little Women, Good Wives and Jo''s Boys
