I finished Little Men a few weeks ago. I loved it! I actually listened to it on librovox.org as I was knitting so it was that much more enjoyable. I found it to be a great book, a wonderful resource, on raising children. The principles that are emphasized throughout the book could be applied to how we raise our children, specifically our boys today. It was also a really fun read! I think that Jakob would really enjoy reading it, lots of mischief, mistakes, and many lessons learned tucked into every page.
Now I’m currently reading two books from my 2011 list. I started Jo’s Boys and Animal Vegetable Miracle. I’m enjoying both of these. I’m still slowing trying to get through Democracy In America, but since I missed the book club meeting where we discussed it I haven’t read much. I will finish it someday, but I’m not pushing too hard. So many books, so little free time.
I need to hurry and finish President Monson's bio and check out Little Men from the library – you've got me motivated. I haven't read it since the 7th grade so it's high time to refresh my memory!
