Little Men by Louisa May Alcott

One of the first books I ever read myself. I might have been eight or so. When I say the first book I ever read, I mean real book. This was a real book, with no pictures etc. So I found this on IBooks free.

Reading it I enjoyed the first few chapters. The story of young Nat's arrival to the Plumfield home for boys. The story is sweet all the way through. The refurbishment of Dan, the rough boy that Nat brings to the home is one that we can learn from.

That said about about two thirds through I could not go any further. The book is not a book for an adult. It is drivel. However it is a good book with good morals. I am just not sure that it transfers to this time and place.
