Little Men by Louisa May Alcott

Description

Little Men is a book by Louisa May Alcott, first published in 1871, and the second novel in the Little Women trilogy. Set at Plumfield, the school run by Jo March Bhaer and her husband, Professor Fritz Bhaer, the book follows a lively group of boys - and a few girls - whose intertwined adventures form a warm portrait of childhood and character-building in the post–Civil War era. At the center of the story is Nat Blake, a shy, talented violinist who arrives at Plumfield in need of guidance and stability. Through his eyes, readers meet classmates such as Dan, a spirited wanderer with a wild streak; Tommy Bangs, mischievous yet good-hearted; and Demi and Daisy, the children of Meg March. Each chapter presents small, episodic tales that highlight Plumfield’s unique blend of freedom, discipline, and heartfelt moral lessons. As Jo and Fritz guide the children through pranks, quarrels, triumphs, and setbacks, they create a home that encourages individuality while teaching responsibility, empathy, and courage. Rich with period detail and written with Alcott’s signature warmth, Little Men remains a beloved classic of 19th-century American literature. Its focus on youthful mischief, moral development, and the enduring bonds of family and friendship makes it ideal for readers seeking wholesome, character-driven fiction rooted in tradition.
