Title: A fine book, just not Alcott's best.
Review: This is a great children's books- I think it scores low with many Alcott readers however because although it is generally good, it is not GREAT like her other books.As the third of the "Little Women" books (1: "Little Women", 2: "Little Men"), "Jo's Boys" features the children of the original March sisters, now grown up themselves and having their own issues of romance and careers. The books of this series are all appropriate reading for young teens.Some people say the moralizing in this book is more than the others- but Alcott put a great deal of cautionary tales in all three. Still, a sweet story and anyone who has read the first two will definitely want to read the last.
