Jo's Boys Book Review

Jo's Boys is a book in the Little Women series about four sisters and their families. In this book, Jo's boys have grown up and scattered across the world. They still come home sometimes to tell her all their troubles and ask if she can help them out of scrapes. This is a good book for ages 9+. Parents, you may want to preview this book before you let your children read it because it has things that you may not want to introduce to your child to yet. I highly recommend this book and I've always liked the Little Women series and I hope you like them too.

Chapter Eight of Little Women, Hope's Book Review

Little Women

In chapter eight of Little Women Jo and Meg are putting on their gloves to go somewhere that Amy doesn't know about. Amy asked where they were going and Jo told her to mind her own business and she can't go because she has a cold. Amy guessed that they were going somewhere with Laurie and that she wanted to go too. When Jo tells her that she can't go Amy says, "You'll be sorry for this Jo March!" When Jo comes back Amy looks as tame as a dove so Jo doesn't worry. But when everyone else is going to bed and Jo was going to write more of her story, she couldn't find her manuscript. Instantly, she thought about what Amy had said that afternoon. She ran into Amy's room and jumped on the bed where Amy was. "Where is my manuscript?!!" she asked Amy. Jo looked into the fire and saw papers in the fire. She screamed and yelled at Amy. Would Jo ever forgive Amy?

Chapter 2 Wind in the Willows

In chapter two the reader learns about a toad named Toad that never stays with one hobby. In the past he loved boating. Now he wants to try caravaning. After convincing Mole and Rat to come with him, he sees a motor car, and he wants one! I wonder what his next interest will be? : -1

Chap. 2 of The Wind in the Willows

One fine day, Mole was sitting by the river, wondering about what kind of a person Toad was. At the same time, Water Rat was humming a song about ducks that he had just made up, and he was very absorbed in doing so. So when Mole asked him a question, he didn't answer until Mole had called his name more than once. When Mole finally got through to Rat, he asked if he would take him to see Toad. So they went to Toad's house. When they got to Toad's house, they saw a sign that read: "Private. No landing allowed." When they got to the sign Rat said, "Here is where we will park our boat." When they got out of the boat, they looked for Toad. They found him in a chair thinking about something. They had arrived just in time to see his new thing which happened to be a canary-colored caravan. You see, whenever visitors came to Toad's house he would always like something different than before. This time it was a caravan. It just so happened that Toad wanted them to go along on a trip he was taking. So with much persuading, Rat and Mole went along in his caravan.
