I'm 10-years-old and I love this book! It's about friendship, sisterhood, romance, etc. This book should be on every 10-year-olds favorite reading list!

The time has passed February 19, 2007
5 out of 24 found this review helpful

Nowadays, if they read at all, children read wide variety of texts. From SF and fantasy to Bukowski and Ginsberg. If they are too young to read they are being fed with television and video games and all of the wonders of modern society and bliss. It is hard to imagine, mother or father, somwehere out there who actually has time to sit by the bed and read to their children some story or novel of old. What's even worse is that it became hard to imagine children that are willing to await with eagerness that time in which another chapter will be read to them.

In that sense, this book expired long time ago.

Written in 1868., in a manner that resembled its authors views of life and her surroundings, this book stands as a monument to a time that has passed. Sometimes being didactic too much, Alcott still succeeds keeping interest for her characters. Four girls are loveable as they get, but their interactions, replicas and "life talks" with her mother often provoke vomiting.

One mustn't forget that it is, after all, book for children, and being such, it couldn't be too much critical, or written in some manner that would shatter fragile world of children (sickness of Beth was damaging enough). As it draws itself near the and, Alcott suddenly develops sense for action, for charaters and motives which simbolises transition from youth to "life", if I'm allowed to call it that way.

Reader of today, with his eye accustomed to different world, and his ears tuned to a different tune, will find this book completely bleak, simplistic and banal. Some more childish, or romantic will enjoy, not so much in characters and narration as in traveling to some faraway time and land. And children, the most important audience that exists, will have hard time in understanding it, without some kind of tutoring over their reading.

Good Social history December 27, 2006
3 out of 5 found this review helpful

I read this book after talking with a friend of mine about it. She said I would enjoy it because of the historical setting (Civil War). I took her advice end enjoyed reading it. It gives a look at the social history of the time which is all too often over looked by many authors, something about battles and war being more interesting. Don't let the title fool you, men and women will enjoy this great piece of literature despite some of the questionable events (A man marrying a women 20 years or so his junior was more acceptable back then)
